Seconded. Honestly if you're making that much HP you gotta think something's gonna give. And with a single plate oem clutch, it really shouldn't be any wonder what it was.

What idiot runs the stock clutch with such a crappton of power upgrades?

I would understand if it were something as powerful as say, a Viper or ZR-1 but even then, very unwise XD

I've owned a 600+hp grand national. With slicks and a good launch it could snap a stock axle. among other things it had a driveshaft loop and scatter shield. seriously that's a good way to lose a foot/leg
