This is what I can tell you. I would not advise you to do that but if you dont have the money right away I am sure you can for about 90 days. Also if you drive senseless that clutch will die on you.

I seen a .org member here in Ga boosting 11.5 psi on a stock clutch. He did it for along time and I have videos of me racing this person. His car also had over 90K.

Why don't you spend the money on the clutch first then boost later?

mike your right buy the clutch first, however if you take the cause and effect route then he will boost the car which will make him buy the clutch. otherwise he may buy the clutch and never get the money together for the boost. I'm kind of glad I got the boost first because if I didn't and I was buying all of the other stuff first, then it would have been less stressfull but I would have found other things to do with the money

Depends on how you drive. Drive hard = ruin clutch in short order. Granny the car = clutch will last as long as you wish.

Common sense prevails here. I bet you could boost to 6-7 psi easy as long as you boost in gear and not shift hard.

Mine is for now. I will proabably get another car just for winter. But besides winter it will still be my daily driver. But I also live 5 minutes from work

For my install I took 10 days off work and had another car available. I needed about that whole 10 days to get everything taken care of
