How do people burn out their clutch on these cars? I have been well over stock or even stage 2 since 10k miles. 68.5k miles on the clock and still ticking.
When you get the new clutch in, be careful during break in. Go with the GM upgrade clutch, it's very nice nad not going to break the bank

hello, i am new to the forum so sorry if im reposting something.
i have an 07 supercharged SS and my clutch is shot at 30k miles, which is absurd. im not sure why it is i have a few mods such as:
cats removed
SLP loudmouth exhaust
CAI
i dont think that this should have that mutch affect on the clutch but please correct me if im wrong, i do drive pretty hard on the clutch with high shifts but didnt think that could cut the life of the clutch so bad.
So aside from that i need help with purchasing a new clutch im not sure if i should purchase the stock or if that will just eat it again, and if not what would be some good aftermarket clutch to look into
thank you for your time

Less clutch riding, showing off, and more driving!

Depends on your goals for the car...if its your daily driver then i would stay with the stock one, if your going for lots of mods (racing) then After market would be your answer.

my clutch is still strong with barely 30k miles and two people learned on this car.....not to mention it hasn't been stock for over half its life

My clutch went out at 22.5 so I'm not surprised at all. Don't replace it with a new stock clutch, waste of time. I'd go for at least a Spec Stage 2+ from TTR, or maybe an Exedy if you can afford it.
