new clutch vs. stock clutch...

the sf turbo kit gives u about 196 torque on average.. and i heard that the civic stock clutch can handle only no more then 200 torque... would i have to get a new one sooner or later?

I just did a Clutchmast Stage 2 along with their Aluminum Flywheel for my 2k3, one of the best upgrades I've ever gotten. Car has alot more power, freed up alot of HP with that flywheel.

Auto's can be very expensive to fix, alot more then a clutch. Can't beat the fun factor either.
