Huh?

why does it break?
It breaks, when folks replace the clutch with a stronger model and then drop it at 7K trying to launch.

is it going to happen so should i expect it?
Nothing to worry about, if you don't continuously abuse the car.

and i plan to be on the 350hp mark soon so should i be woried about or it only happends on high hp evos?
...it's not a concern unless the TC is already damaged by a previous owner.

Edit: I took a quick look at your other posts. It seems like your Evo is a SE (?) that went through a complete color change, and it was purchased with a staggered wheel setup. At the risk of sounding unsympathetic, all bets are off. I hope you had the car thoroughly checked out by an Evo-specific shop. Good luck.

a fluid leak from a bad seal can also ruin your t-case, check the level once and while and change the fluid regularly with OEM or greater
