Hi,
For a stage 3 setup (which it sure sounds like you're running) there's no need to upgrade the clutch.
Stock will handle 330-340 ft-lbs of torque, which is about where my car is.
Significantly higher torque than a "normal" stage 3 or very early boost, combined with excessive driving at high gear/low rpm and WOT will of course often lead to premature clutch failure.
But with sensible driving and the "modest" torque levels you're running, I'd stick with stock. Checking air mass with a Tech II should, however, give you a better idea of just how "wicked" your S/W actually is.
Best regards,
KK
