Default Clutch clamp load vs. clutch master cylinder

Anybody using the new comp clutch stage 4 and having problems with the clutch master cylinder blowing out? It's happened to me twice already in the past year. I'm thinking that the clamp load is too great and causing it to fail. Does anyone know how much additional clamp load this clutch gives? I may switch to the act 6 spline race clutch if the clamp load is lower (supposedly 32% increase over stock). Anyone using the act race clutch and NOT having problems with the master cylinder? Thanks!

The hydraulics on these cars suck bad and there is not clutch other than OEM that won't shred the master and/or slave.

Not exactly the news I was hoping for. Then again, didn't have high expectations. Just wondering if any clutch was lasting longer than others. Can't keep sending my ride to the shop every few months for a clutch master replacement.
