Clutch Masters stage 4 6puck will hold the power your supercharger is putting out. Very driveable not like most stage 4s. As for your flywheel just machine yours it is the lighter AP1 flywheel, if you can't machine it get a used one that can be machined. Just make sure the shop that does it for you maintains the step. That requires pulling out the guide pins and machining both the disc surface and the pressure plate mounting surface. If they only machine the disc surface you may end up slipping further down the road.

I'm looking to supercharge as well and I'm planning on a Spec Stage 2+...its strong enough to handle what you're putting down, and still has good pedal, and it won't chatter like a puck clutch design will.

Competition has plenty of choices and I really liked the Stage 3 I had awhile back. Very manageable for street use, and held 400+whp no problems.

I'm not a fan of the spec clutches, since I own one, and I can honestly say that it's not that good. I would stick with competition or act honestly. I had a comp stage 4 in my last integra, and just purchased one for my s2 as well.

Also, remember that clutches are rated for torque not horsepower.

How much power are you making/plan to make?

How long has the one motor mount been shot for?
If its been while you should probably replace both because the good one has been taking a beating.

Did you make this up? stock pa1 produce about 15x tq and you have 165 while making close to "300whp"..? Somethingis seriously wrong here.
