not to well, clutch will go quik, get you an ls7 clutch holds the power good and it has a stock fell to it. the 10 bolt will **** ou on you,dont launch it and keep your racing on the highway it could last u while but not forever.

well you have a 02 and most likely a zo6 clutch in there right now. I made my stocker last for 5k miles at the power level in my sig, and that was casual driving.
If you are going to spend the money get the clutch. I wish I would have done it at the same time

Definetly get a clutch, the only problem is that its just like everything else, the more you spend the better you will get, so if you have the money get a twin disk, if not then the crap shoot of regular clutches.
Honestly if you have the money just go with a built 4l60.

i have 440 rwhp and i am using the stock ls6 clutch from the 01 and 02 cars,and the stock rear end.I have about 10 track passes,and lots of street fun.I have never run anything but good street tires in the back.BFG kdw.Everything is holding up fine but if i want to run some sticky tires i know i will need a clutch,and rear.

clutch will hold up for normal driving...basically nothing over about 50% throttle.
and whats the point of having 440rwhp if you never actually use it.
my stock clutch with 55K miles was slipping in the top end with 380rwhp. it showed on the dyno.
sofar my rear is holding up to 400rwhp. although i have the upgraded bearing studs and a rear end girdle. but i was pretty hard on it for 2yrs with 315 DRs driving aggressively on the street.
that's with a stg 4 clutch
no hard launches but i shifted hard alot.

Depends on how the car is driven, how it's beat on...and luck.
My car has 112,000 on the stock clutch. 80,000 of that with H&C w/4.10's in the 10-bolt. The car sees some beating on the street but not an excessive amount. I'm a mild driver 99% of the time.
I expected to the stock clutch to die within three months with heads and cam.
You'll be making more power than my set up does but you might get lucky and your stock clutch last for a little while.
If you put sticky tires on the 10-bolt will likely blow up.
With that said I know one guy who got 600+ passes on his 10-bolt w/4.10's in his A4 LT1 Z28.
Good Luck.
