Torque is the only limiting factor to a clutch as far as power goes. HP has nothing to do with it. Also Swanny is running a larger clutch than a DSM does, so that doesn't mean crap. How much torque did Cher's car make?

A single disk will handle most of it on a DSM, but you end up replacing them often at high HP levels. A twin disk will last much longer.
