i was wondering what is the best streetable clutch for the w58 tranny im looking to push 600-700hp or more. i am already pushing out 450bhp but on high rpms the clutch i have slips a bit. i was looking at the horsepowerfreak clutch or powerhouse racing clutch. is there any other clutch i could use?

I'm sure you know this already, but at 6-700 hp you won't have a tranny to worry about for long.

Not exactly true, someone on the forums has already made 698rwhp on the w58 5spd an had not had a problem with it yet. So it seems to be able to hold the power quite well.

And 100 people have sheard teeth off the W58 gears.

that good to hear, ill change my mind on hp. i was going to sell my garrett t04 for a bigger turbo but now you think i should just sell off the turbo, manifold and wastegate and stick with the stock twins and build around that?
in another thread i was reading about the rps stage 5 clutch it good up to 500-590hp

From what i hear, 500+ hp and the tranny is a ticking bomb. i wouldnt be worrying about a clutch at those numbers. Its more about looking into the r154 conversion or v160 swap.

people have even crapped out as low as 400-450rwhp
