Default std clutch

Does anyone know what sort of power the std rs turbo clutch is good for??

im gonna be aiming for around 170bhp. I know it would be best to get an uprated cltuch but this one has only been in the car for about 2 months and this engine rebuild is sucking the life outta my wallet. credit crunch n that!

Any thing from 160-200 depending on how your car makes it's power (it's the torque that makes it slip not the BHP).
