Default ACT HS1-HDSS clutch,good enough for 30r?

Plan to run a full race turbo kit with a 30r ish equivalent, .82 hotside. Was wondering if this clutch would suffice as I originally intended to use this with a supercharger kit. Websites rate this clutch at 380ft Lbs of torque, but wondering if anyone has any insight or experience with this clutch and turbo kits like the 30r. Thanks in advance!

Additional information that may be pertinent:

-F22 motor
-Most likely will be running a 3mm headgasket boosting about 15psi
-Expected 400-450whp on 91 pump

Do you already have that pressure plate on the car? If not you might want to wait for ACT to release their revision of that pp.

K, another question. Should I install the clutch before the turbo, or should i just install the clutch while installing the turbo? In other words, does this clutch need to be broken in first?

You should install everything at once and break in everything together.

But that means I can't really tune right away, can I?

Most tuners would say to break in your clutch before coming for the tune.

The ACT street clutch disc is for 382 lbs of torque. I have the same clutch and I'm right at 380 in hot weather. I've only had it with the turbo for a few weeks and it's holding fine so far.

It doesn't hurt to install the clutch first. Especially if you're doing it yourself. Give yourself time to break it in N/A and not a base map. But it may be cheaper if you're paying someone else to do the total install at once. my $.02

Edit: I also would want to drive around on the base map for a long period of time.
