A lot of people have told me once I stage my stock clutch will go almost immediatelyNobody can really tell you whether your clutch would hold up or not. How could anybody who hasn't driven it or pulled the trans out determine that? Either way, you will need a clutch upgrade eventually.
Thanks, just picked up the carShould be fine as long as you haven't abused your clutch.
I knew a guy who had a Stage 2 on stock clutch for over 10k and I don't know how he didn't need a replacement by the way he was driving. Its a mystery.Yea 2nd owner! And I hear you, picked up from a bmw dealer so not sure who the previous owner was but car drives and pulls amazing

You are right about that, clutch jobs ain't cheap. I paid about $1,800 for parts + install.If you do not have a cushion to upgrade the clutch on top of the cost of the tune, do not go stage 1. Its a flip of the coin that you will slip or not, and a clutch job aint cheap. Dip your toes with a piggyback and see if your pressure plate can hold the power. Mine couldnt even hold a Neuspeed power bump, but as soon as I removed it the clutch would stop slipping.
