I have put 40k hard miles on mine over 4 years. Regular maintenance and an AOS are all I've had to do. I used to autocross it a good bit and put plenty of launches on the clutch in those days, but...

Yeah that price sounds steep to me. I will probably get the upgrade done when something else requires the transmission to be dropped (clutch, RMS, etc.). I'm at 85k miles right now, and about half...
