I have 68k on my stock clutch and it has did just fine with a chip. With a chip and injectors the stock clutch will last about an hour.

I would measure its time in seconds, no joke.
I recently put an upgraded clutch in mine due to slippage.
Worst part is my clutch, flywheel, and pressure plate looked brand new, the stock setup just plain won't hold the kind of power capable.
You can drive it, but no way you can get all the power out of it you are capable of.

As far as the first mod, personally, I'd put a chip in first and see how you like the power. Injectors are EXPENSIVE!! I personally would do them last. Also, with bigger injectors come changes to fuel system. (bigger pumps, regulators, etc.) Just my thoughts. Good luck.

??? I've never ridden in an auto powerstroke that had as many mods as mine, but the ones I have ridden in did not impress me, the e40d leaves alot to be desired in stock form behind these engines. I never plan to drag race my truck or anything, so me its manual all the way. I've heard estimates that these trannies will hold 600hp with a good clutch...
