suba Unregistered S	depend on what turbo you are running - if it is savage and quick to come on boost you might be pushing it with the stock clutch depending on how you drive, and how long you want it to last. The next step up used to be a walkers cover plate - which was fine for me at 340bhp, but it was heavy on your left foot. Above this it used to be a helix organic....
