I'll be going with a stage 1 clutch. Stage 2 at the most. So we have +1 for Centerforce. Anyone else? ACT? Exedy?

I bought a 6 puck ACT clutch about 7 years ago. Very stiff clutch and grabs very hard. Took some time to get used to it in the beginning. I either barked the tires or stalled everytime I let off the clutch in first until I found the "sweet spot". After about 1000 miles it was better. Definitely not a good clutch to get if you expect to sit in stop-n-go traffic, but if you want something that really grabs I would say get it. As far as longevity, I can't say how long it will last since I did an engine swap about a year later.
