Stock clutch. Most of the local 9 second passes have been made on stock clutches.

Mine is a stock clutch, but it doesn't last as long with all the HP. It's still a lot cheaper than the carbon clutches (I could replace mine about 6 times for the price of one of the carbon clutches).

It does hold up well on the street, but if you plan on a lot of track action, it'll take a beating.

I think it is a matter of how good is your traction....ie, slicks and basically stock hp can make a stock clutch slip. With slicks or et streets I always recommend starting off with higher tire pressure (25 psi) and working your way down. It's much better on the clutch to let the tires slip a little bit....I call it hazing the tires. Not spinning but not a dead hook either. This is at the strip, on the street any tire should be ok with the clutch until you get to higher speeds with real high hp.

I just bought a spec carbon clutch and AL flwheel for only $300 more than the combination costs from Sean. I would have went stock, but I was worried as my clutch gave out at 20000 miles and I am going to have over 750 RWHP added next month.
