Default Which clutch kit to buy?

I'm looking to replace my clutch soon so I just wanted to get some feedback as to what you all may suggest. I'm looking for something with a little more grab than the stock. At some point I will be adding some kind of boost but nothing crazy. So in a nutshell, something with good grab that won't kill me in rush hour.

Thanks

A good clutch that doesn't have a stiff pedal would be an ACT street/strip. CM sucks!

I agree, I had a clutchmaster for awhile and it ripped itself to shreds, but I have an ACT stage 3 with the heavy duty clutch and I love it

the organic friction disc is designed to give you a smooth engagment. other ceramic or puck style of disc's will have a much harsher engagment but they grab better.

for everyday driving in stop and go traffic you will deffinatly want a organic face disc.

I have a brand new RPS street disc w/pressure plate for sale. 300 shipped if you're interested. Good for about 230 ft/lbs tq.

I've never used any aftermarket clutch but Clutchnet or RPS. Personally, I'm very loyal to those companies. (even though RPS manufactures Clutchnet clutches.)

Will an organic wear worse or have a shorter life than than a ceramic version?
