Icon2 Good or bad clutch purchase. need some imput!!!!!

Ok guys im running a b18c in a ek hatch.

I purchased a act 8 pound flywheel and a act 6 puck sprung clutch
I am second guessing my purchase on the 6 puck and i am hearing that it might mess up my tranny (hydro lsd ) due to the harsh engagement it has.

It is my daily driver and i am going to be building the top end of the motor and your normal bigger throttle body, intake , exhaust mani ect.

Was this a good purchase or is this clutch going to do more harm to my tranny. if you guys used it before give me some advise on if you liked it or if you didnt and why.

Im really just going for a reliable build. Skunk2 cams valves springs retainers and your normal full bolt on skunk two parts. Really top hp im looking at is 220-230 nothing much just a alittle more get up then what it had.

what clutch do you recommend getting? Im really looking for something that has a smooth release and isnt a bitch to use and not gonna detonate my tranny.

Can anyone point me in the right direction of a very streetable clutch that can hold some hp thrown at it but most of all very friendly to the driver.
