LNF stock clutch question

This is for everyone with performance mods on stock clutches. I was just wondering how many miles everyone has on their stock clutches. How long will our clutches hold up with a little over 300 ft/lbs of tq?

36k+ miles on mine and tuned. Holds fine. The tires break loose before the clutch does. I've been very impressed by its resilience.

I've got a Spec 3+ sitting around for when it decides it doesn't want to play anymore. Figured it'd be one of those cases where it'd be best to already have it around instead of having to wait on one.

if you don't dog it in the higher gears it will be fine. mine has been tuned for most of it's life and slips like crazy in 3,4,5 gears under 4500rpm. i have a spec stage 3 coming in the mail.

17,000 miles. The track every weekend with slicks on and cutting 1.9 60 foot times everytime. Stock clutch will hold for a long time at only 300ftlbs.

well looks like my stock clutch will be fine for a while...just wanted to get an idea of how long i had til i needed to buy a new stronger clutch. but it looks like i can slide it to the back burner for a while. still keeping the spec stage 3 with aluminum flywheel in mind tho. ive got the RPD in my car and the HP/TQ gauge is showing around 300 for both. Which means im prolly around 280 to the wheels (maybe more) but i should be fine for a long time.

i just have an injen CAI and trifecta tune @ 22psi but i always drive the car in the stock tune unless im showing it off to my friends.
