    The only problem with used stock pressure plates is that you dont know if it is 100% and a boosted car builds instantly and will burn a new clutch quick.

    WRONG I have built many 350 hp hondas, with stock HONDA pressure plates with stage 2 and 3 disc with no issues.... The reason why most use stock or stock design plate is so you dont tear break everything at the track with slicks...Stage 3 plates hit to hard and rips shit apart

    WHY would you build a 350hp car and use a stock pressure plate?! And notice I said a USED pressure plate. I thought he wanted to reUSE his pressure plate.
