Your clutch choice will depend on the power you plan to make. The Exedy organic is not much better than a stock clutch and wont really hold much over 190wtq...not to mention if you ever plan to go to the track, its going to be toast. I would look at a Clutchmasters Stage 3 or Stage 4. I'm going with the Stage 4 on my 450whp build

if ur turbo, don't get anything that is stage 1, it will be a waste of money. get at least stage 2 and up, depending on ur hp. Action makes a clutch to support 500 whp for pretty cheap and they're good as well.

There are a lot of things to consider when picking a clutch and flywheel combination to match your engine and turbo setup. On my setup i have an ACT 11lb fly and an Exedy stage 2 clutch. It provides good streetability and quick response. If you were to go lighter you may fall out of boost during shifts depending on your turbo choice.

These are a couple websites that are filled with information...in a matter of minutes you can learn about all kinds of b.a. setups, some are inexpensive also!
http://www.d-series.org
http://www.homemadeturbo.com
http://www.turbod16.com

Those last two websites are ones that I would do quite a bit of research on. The first is mainly just a huge database with all sorts of info on the d-series motors.
Good luck man!

a friend of mine suggested to me a 6 puck or 4 puck clutch. apparently it's not too streetable but it can handle a good amount of torque

look up xtd clutches here on HT. their 6 puck stage three clutch apparently are amazing but the other ones that are weaker are ****.
