Default RS4 clutch.. is it going to be strong enough?

april 4th my car is going in to get my awe rsko4 kit installed. Im worried that the rs4 clutch i plan to have installed at the same time wont be strong enough. Is the rs4 clutch + esc tuning lw flywheel going to handle stage 3+? ill also have catback, piggies, and fmic installed.[/align][/align]Should i return the rs4 clutch, and get the ecs tuning stage III clutch kit? I dont track regularly, but i do drive my car pretty hard on the street, including a hard launch now and then. [/align]

I think it will hold up for a little while but if I were doing all that work and didn't want to do it again I would look into a stronger clutch.

You should be fine if you don't lauch the car a lot. You know the RS4 clutch, was made for K04's.

Clutchmaster stage 3 wasn't strong enough for me apparently...though I suspect some defect - either in hardware or instalation. Its comming out later this week and being sent back to clutchmasters...my shop is recommending a stage 4 - but I want something that will not wear out too quicky, though this stage 3 clutch only lasted since last April (and has been slipping from at least December if not even earlier).
