Vehicle weight has a lot to do with it. I hit 12.44 on my SC with a T2 clutch and T3 PP before mine started to slip.

Haha yeah I was running as S70 as well, but my daytona was a little heavier that must be why. So pretty much I believe you are currently on the edge of that clutch with that weight and power level.

Perhaps a different brand has a better disc. I got the T2/T3 from FWD-P, looking at the pics the TU t2/t3 combo looks like a little more stout on the disc. They both use the Sach's pressure plate.
Like I said my clutch never even slipped, so I certainly wasn't expecting this-

I'm sure it wouldn't have lasted long running it like that though. It was definitely on the edge and if I didn't drive it right, I could get some slip launching it.
