Default Need Help with Speed Issues

I have a 93 integra that I bought with a b18b1 in it with a stage 3 clutch. Today I was driving home very tired where my legs felt dead and every time I'd come from a stop into 1st gear it was like driving a stick for the first very jerky. At first I thought I was just tired and couldn't balance the clutch, but even down hill rolling it was the same. On the freeway the car seemed normal. When I got off same thing, then I couldn't get past 20 mph in 1st or 25 mph in 2nd, the rpms would go up but the speed struggled.

I turned the car on and off to see if it might be a fuel issue but started normal. Drove it again and I reached higher speeds in 1st and 2nd by about 3 mph. I also noticed a little lag and sputtering, so not sure if it could be the fuel filter or pump or something else. Or if the b18b1s have a limp mode??? Also I have no CEL

so, the clutch is acting up or the car is? Stage 3 clutch is NOT needed in a stock motor, and they can be hard to press and a pain in the *** for daily driving.

It was chocking and sputtering and stalling, I actually changed the spark plugs, plug wires and fuel filter and it's working good now.

It was the car, not the clutch, the clutch is still strong and kills my leg still. I bought the car with the stage 3 clutch I wouldn't put on a stage 3 myself unless I had upgraded internals and a turbo or something, and it is a pain in the *** especially on all up hill streets in traffic.
