How much power is your engine producing? Clutch life is influenced by driving habits more than engine power. Keep in mind that the stronger the clutch, the stronger your left leg needs to be, and this can get old fast if you are driving in stop & go traffic.

You can step up to an aftermarket pressure plate and still use the stock clutch.
