My car is considered a daily driver but isnt actually used daily. I live in central london and traffic is something you just have to live with. I run around 630hp and its fine although the clutch is bordering annoying when its stop start traffic - its a HD Exedy Twin Plate.
I would think that if you ran up to 500hp that you could use a much milder clutch that wouldnt pose the same issues.
Apart from that despite larger size turbo its has alot of low down torque, but then again the stroker helps alot.
i use mine every day in all kinds off trafic and its fine i like the way that the 2.3 has lots off low down torque. so it pulls very well also love the way that i can chage the boost seting from 1.4 bar to 1.8 and 2.1 on the avcr
My Evo 6 is currently running 400 bhp (although it's still a 2.0 litre non-stroked) and that's perfectly fine as a daily driver. It's the only car I use and I have no issues at all.
The clutch is firm but not too heavy and because I'm still running a standard 6 turbo the spool is quick and strong, although I'm looking to upgrade to an Evo 9 GT turbo with a larger front mounted IC soon to give an even faster spool and a little more power.
Doubt I'll try for much more power right now as the internals are standard apart from the uprated rod bolts, and I haven't the money for forging the internals yet.

No problem using mine everyday...A stroked engine is great round town as said..Lots of low down torque, if you make the right clutch choice there is no reason why it should be hard to drive at slow speeds...
I drive mine everyday in traffic across Dublin no problems
