No problems so far.

And there's plenty running the same and more than myself and not heard of any problems.

i was running 383 bhp for over a year of hard driving and the odd drag run and mine held it no probs.just swapped to a twin plate as ive upped the power some more but the standered one should be fine if your running around 350.

my STANDARD 2.0 GX box and clutch has survived 20+ 5,000 rpm launch's.

Im running in the region of 330-340 bhp too from a sti 8 conversion.

All the haters on here said it wont last, its not doing too bad!
