Default KB question

Hey guys.. what is usually the first thing to go with a KB installed? I have about 6k saved up and am going to be putting a KB in soon but if the clutch or some other parts usually start to fail I might as well save up a little more and upgrade that stuff at the same time.. what do you think? what's usually the first to go?

plenty of people running a stock clutch, rear end, tranny, etc with KBs. just keep the power down to around 400 for now and you should be fine.

Your stock clutch could possibly go but not for a while I would imagine. You could always step up to a spec stage 1 or another brand close to that. Lethal Performance has a good selection if you decide to upgrade your clutch.

screw that, just get a stage 3 or a stage 3+

but yeah, you'll be fine if you keep the power down anyway.

great. thanks guys.. If I do change it it would be a stage 3.. but I will probably just leave it for now since you think the stocker will be fine with 400hp.
