I'll back that up, just keep out of boost in overdrive and you'll be okay. You don't have to worry about the manual clutch, that's the only performance item that's gone bad on mine and that's from running on the track and then wide open throttle on the dyno, so my bad, but the clutch on the manual tranny wasn't make to take the kind of torque the engine is putting out after modifications. Yours will be just fine....
