Hello to all!
I’m interested in possibly upgrading my clutch, as I’ve spoken to a few people making the power I aspire to reach (~280whp, ~220-230wtq), and I’ve gotten mixed responses.

Some have stated they made 280+whp and 230+wtq and stayed stock clutch for 36k miles, no slipping, sold the car without ever having to upgrade/replace clutch.

Others have stated they were slipping between 5k-7k rpm at ~260whp ~215wtq.

All of the people I spoke to were low miles (less than 40k on their car), all supercharged too. I’m not sure if it’s just the way people drive or just a coin toss on how your clutch handles it to be honest.

So anyways. I’m interested in potentially upgrading my clutch. A few I’ve had my eye on are the Southbend (stage 2 or stage 3), and the ACT XT street with normal weight flywheel (SB7-xtss). Both have been recommended to me. The ACT seems to be a better deal for the money? I wouldn’t know I haven’t driven a car with either. Looking for some responses from people who have these upgraded clutches to chime in.

I’m also interested in upgrading the fork and pivot to verus (only if necessary). And wondering what kind of experiences people have had with this as well.

This car is my daily, I don’t track it, occasional “spirited” driving only. 29k on the dash. Only has a simple header tune right now and has for about 10k miles. Going FI in the near future.

I really don’t want to have to upgrade the clutch and the other components right away unless it’s a necessity, (please don’t take a dump on this post because I’m hesitant to dump hundreds into a clutch I’m unsure is necessary) and from what I’ve been told, some people say it’s a necessity, some say it’s really not. But if I need to I’d like to know what’s tried and true by others. Thanks guys.
