Clutch that retains the Stock Clutch Assist

I know most people do not like the clutch assist for whatever reason it may be, clutch feel or lack there of, inconsistancy of pedal travel, ect.

I am actually on the other end of that spectrum, I happen to like the assist.

My question is, I am guessing the reason that most people are forced to go to the GT2 conversion is because the stock assist gets overwelmed by the extra clamping force?

Is there a list of clutches that will not do this, where you can retain the assist without having to replace it each year or so many X amount of miles? Are multi disk clutches easier on this because they may require less clamping force due to the multi disk?

Sorry, let me add... Looking for a clutches that can handle 700 torque. Info on ones lower or higher than that is fine too.

I went to the GT2 hydro setup because clutches that handle big power are very difficult to modulate. Think stop and go traffic on a steep hill

You will hate the stock system when you get a clutch that can handle 700wt. I have heard LOTS of claims about "this clutch is just like stock" but I have never even seen one that can come close. Not on any brand of clutch or type of car.

GL with your search!
