curious how these mod's will translate over to the Sportback RA. . . .would love to have a car that is wife friendly and can STILL keep me satisfied after having my raging EVO VIII for 5 years. . .

1. Does it slip a few times meaning frequent or not often but does happen time to time?
2. By your observations if i was to mod and tune mine for 330 WHP and 315 WTQ (give or take) would that be safe for daily driving?
3. You said it's nearing the limit, what would you think the limit would be (guesstimate)?
Sorry to ream you with questions but i am really curious to what this SST can handle w/o upgrading the clutch packs.
We don't take kindly to secrets around here bryan
. Be sure to share with us if it works

Ok was wondering if there have been any new updates in regards to this set up. How's it been handling the power over the past months is there to be a kit available before summer and has any new data been discovered in regards to the SST?

So, 295wtq proved to be too much power for the TC-SST.
Hmm, not good, considering it's only been a few months.
Has AMS looked into the upgrade clutch packs from SSP?

Torque is measured as an estimation at the crank. It was making around 300 ft lbs, maybe a little more.
Getrag rates the Ralliart SST's torque limit lower than the Evo's. I'm not sure why, but it would appear that it's true due to the fact that our Ralliart SST has seemed to meet its match at a power level lower than an Evo SST would have.
