Newb from south florida

Well there's not much to say but this im pretty new to the car game .
I bought myself a 2008 Evo MR graphite gray.
Im 19 and this is the only thing ive been working to get .
I plan on modding my car once i pass the 1000 mile marker ,Because i only have like 120 miles on it. If theres anyone with mods on a X im trying to figure out at what hp and torque the clutch starts to slip. Pm me.

Welcome to the site.. We have a Gray MR here with 365whp that is doing well so far holding power.. This MR is Fully modded.. Feel free to stop by the shop to take a look at it.. Might help you decide mods you want to do down the road..

Mike

Welcome, I'm also in South FL, Ft.Lauderdale area , 5 mins away from Sawgrass!

You should go to the evo meet thats coming up. You would need someone from the fourms or a friend that is 21 to let us in since I'm 20 and can't go in by myself, so..I'm heading over there by 8 at the most. The 24th, on a Saturday @ DNB, Hollywood, you should check it out!

Welcome, in SFLA as well. I am pushing around 420-430 whp and my clutch is fine if we are talking about aftermarket. If you are refering as to when the stocker will take a dump then I would say it all depends on how you drive the car and the mod levels involved. There are a bunch of people who have gone 30k+ miles on the stocker with mild mods and some that have burnt them out in 2k miles with mild mods

im in Weston right off of Royal Palm or Old Arvida.. i just got my car but ive been really busy with school.. does anyone on here know of a good tuning shop that is working with the MR. Because most of you guys have the gsr and i dont want the sst clutch to start slipping so i was wondering whats the most it could handle?
