Default monster clutch

i'm looking to get a new clutch and the tick master cyl for my 99 TA. for this coming summer the motor will be stock except for full slp exhaust. i do plan on building up either this motor or a larger cube motor in the not so distant future but i will be taking this car on a trip to disney from ontario with the family in the spring so i don't really want to mess with it until after that. i am interested in the monster stage 3 pkg from tick performance. will this clutch be ok with the stock motor for this summer? i am also going half on the efi life programmer with a buddy so i should be able to squeez a few more ponies out of this engine.

its not gonna be a dd.its a weekend nice day car kinda car, maybe 3000 miles a year. id like it to be around 500 horse on motor alone and then spray 100 at it??? but you never know everybody always seems like they want more power after anyway so i guess i might end up pushing limits of the level 3.

I would go with either a Monster Level 3, or a Level 5 if you ever plan on increasing your shot over 175. Give us a call and I will be glad to go over the details and get one coming your way.
