There's plenty of people who have upgraded to a K04 and left the clutch stock. The bigger factor is how YOU drive the car, and how abusive you are. I don't think i've heard of anyone killing their engine by power upgrades. The German's make a pretty tough engine.

if you have the multitronic version remember that it only support 273hp (the multitronic version for a4 1.8t), uf you go up, the chain of the multitronic get broken, this is not a joke, but if you have the tiptronic version, dont worry until 450hp
