Unfortunately their site doesn't show torque capacity for the crossfire part numbers. I'd call them with your ultimate plans and buy down not up. The higher the stage the more severe. It has been my experience that the stage I is an awesome improvement over stock even as a replacement for an otherwise stock vehicle. The stage 3 can get pretty damn grabby in first. A new driver that isn't accustomed will kill the car more times than not but it is drivable no less. Until I had the numbers in front of me, my inclination would be the same as yours with the 2. It was a comfortable clutch on my Spyder.

That said, a lot remains to be seen in that there is talk of a turbo that doesn't yet exist and real numbers haven't been published. Of course Corky can always tune to a spec knowing the limits of our trannys. If that is the case than there may be no need to upgrade at all. Also, if this is the case and you are due for a clutch anyway than a stage 1 may not only suffice but be a bonus.

If however his base kit has the ability to be modified and the boost turned up than you may want to plan accordingly. I can say this, I haven't known many people that ever sat on a base kit and not wondered what else it could do?

Sorry for all the ifs but that is exactly where we are at the moment.
