Not true at all, mines a heavy stage 1 plus intercooler running an estimated 250lb/ft and has been for the last 15k. The clutch is at least 40k old, possibly over 120k, and takes ALL the abuse and laughs it off. There's no reason anyone elses shouldn't be the same, unless they drive like a complete troll lol.
Completely agree regards stage 2 though, I reckon mnc amd emma have been lucky with theirs, or they're much more mechanically sympathetic than most. Either way, theirs is the exception rather than the rule, in 95% of conversions i've seen, only two have managed to retain the original clutch.
