Question Clutch?

I have a 00' TA with LT's with a ORY with no muffler, SLP Cold air induction package, with NGK 55 spark plugs. And i am getting a BBK TB and SLP LS6 intake manifold with a tune. Do think my stock clutch will be able to handle all that. I herd that the stock clutch cant hold much more hp over stock and i was wondering if that is true?

IMO, you'll be on borrowed time, especially if it's the original unit. It doesn't look like your horsepower numbers are shooting to the moon by any means at this point but I can tell you when my car was modded about the same as yours, I put a Z06 clutch in because I picked one up cheap and it held good until the power went up. Considering your car's a 2000, consider hydraulic upgrades as well. Clutch pedal stuck to the floorboard when driving hard yet? If it hasn't, it will....
