Stock clutch will hold the little bit of power that 5psi puts out.

well you have a GS-t not a GS made in to a GS-T so you dont have to worry about the clutch unless you go over 300 hp...
i have on now is a Stage one kit wich holds 70% more over stock so im wondering if this will hold better to runing 5 psi..or do i have to buy the stage 4 clutch wich is a bit pricy..
thanks

Stage 1 should be fine. Dave_FL ran his stock clutch up to 15psi when it finally couldn't hold it.

Don't replace it unless it's dead or you just want to do it now your stocker will be just fine under stage 1 or 2 power. I have the star kit at 8psi and she holds nicely.
