If I aim for about 380whp, will this clutch hold the power?

The seller told me it will hold up to 400rhp but any more and I need their racing clutch setup.
I am going to run an XS to4 turbo and aim for around 380rwhp with my heavy streetport engine. tell me what you guys think. the price of the clutch is good and I went in person and talked to them. I think they might be bsing me but what do you guys say.

That looks just like an OEM replacement clutch. Depending on what you want to do with your car, you'll need a better clutch. You have a "heavy streetport" and single turbo... etc.. You'll probably be running over 400 to the wheels. I would go along the lines of this clutch.

If you're hell bent on the HP, and the clutch, go for it. You WANT the clutch to give before the driveline. I mean it's a lot cheaper to spend 3-4 hundred on a clutch kit than 3-4K on the WHOLE driveline.
The clutch plate or friction plate maybe a stock unit. Most upgraded clutchs include a stock friction plate and provide an upgraded pressure plate with heavier springs on it to give more holding power for higher horse power applications.

better safe than sorry

Just FYI.. When you are looking at clutches, the rateing you want to pay attention to is the torque holding spec. HP has almost nothing to do with the limits of the clutch. It's all in the torque #'s.
That said, a stock disc will be alright and give streetable performance. But a new PP is a must as stated already. The Street strip from ACT is nice. I use a 6 puck ACT in mine. A bit rough but you get used to it.
