Right now I've got the 420a on my 99 gs built up so that on a hahn stage II at 9psi I should be running a generous 320-330 flywheel hp and a gestamation of 290- 300tq . I wasn't going to bolt on the turbo untill this fall so I was wondering if the stock transmission, drive-train, axles, and any other related parts would be able to withstand this increase in hp. I figured I would have to replace the clutch and flywheel but if I don't please someone tell me. Any help would be greatly appericated


ps. Two forms of advice I don't want are
1. Try searchen a thread. ( I've tried, there are no questions portaining to the 420a engine under these circumstances.
2. Why don't or didn't you just buy a gst. ( So help me I will reach thru the screen and pimp smack the hell out of you.) My moma told me I was unique. :
 
i would highly recommend Spec Stage 2 or 3 clutch....

i love it stock feeling... grabs lovely... very harsh tho i have the stage 2 ... and when i redline.... all i have to say if u really want to do this i would recommend you make sure your motor moutns are very tight... and you use good transmission fluid... i am using pennzoil syncromesh... i love it...

I have bought the spec stage 2 clutch without the flywheel and bought the fidanza 8.5 flywheel ... i did a nonmodular style conversion
