I think it depends..There are alot of folks here, with very high hp evo's stock tranny,and motor..Clutch seems to be the weak spot..So,its alot easier for people to answer this question if you give them your goals..Like i want 500 hp..will this hold,etc??Just a thought..Justin..

Stock engine love boost and power.Highest WHP is 611whp,ET is 10.83,fastest trap is 131.06MPH.I think the engine can be pushed to 9's,140MPH and 700whp. Should be easy with menatahol instead of fuel.If you want to know more,check out my 500whp stock block club thread.

Ive got a friend with 600 hp on his Evo and hes still using stock tranny and t-case. Just using ACT HDSS clutch. He does have a built block though. Me personally im looking to make around 350hp for a good daily driver and plan on sending my tranny and tcase off to shep racing eventually just for reliablitys sake.
