There is no chance in hell that a stock plate handles that power.

Iv realized that, im not a 16 year old snot nosed kit who goes balls to the wall every chance i get. I am a very mature driver. I follow posted speed limits, but very rarely...like maybe a couple of Saturdays a month...i will hit the freeways for some runs from a 60 roll. I DO NOT EVER race from a dig or pop the clutch at high rpms, i dont even do burnouts for that matter...i dont like it, i have no traction, and i hate the clutch burning smell, and i know that the above mention activities is what kills trannies.
