OEM clutch questions?

Does the oem clutch hold up againts simple bolt ons. For example exhaust ,intake, and simple ecu re-flash. I dont want nothing crazy just the basic bolt ons to let the engine breath better and be as solid as any daily can be.

What is the max tq a stock evo8 clutch can handle on a day to day basis. No hard launchings, maybe some pulls here and there but thats it.

some users have bolt ons and have had 80-100k on their clutch

some users have bolt ons and needed a new clutch 10k later

You could always remove the restrictor pill from the slave cylinder to give the stock clutch a little more life.
