Default What clutch do I need for my 98 Civic Hatchback that has a S20 B000 Si Tranny?

So here is my background info for my question:

I recently purchased a turbocharged 1998 Honda Civic Hatchback CX from a guy in Colorado and I believe my clutch is slipping and I want to replace it before I get stranded somewhere.

It has a (built) D16Y8 block with a (built) D16Y7 non/vtec SOHC head and a S20 B000 Si Tranny bolted up to it. It currently has a Competition Stage 4 Clutch (Sprung Ceramic 6 Puck Disk and HD Pressure Plate) and I plan to replace it with a "Spec" Stage 4 6 Puck Clutch, but i do not know which clutch kit to buy. They are listed for specific vehicles, so would I buy the clutch kit for the 1999-2000 Civic Si since the tranny came from an Si?

Quick help on this would be great because this is my daily driver and I do not know how much longer it will last.

This is my first manual transmission/boosted car and the first time I am using a car forum to ask a question, so go easy on me?

the transmission is not from a 99-00 si. you need one for a 92-00 civic with a d series.

Thanks. After several hours of searching I realized that. Just forgot to take down the post.

In your opinion, which clutch should I go with. I know I want a stage 4 6 puck clutch, but should I get a Spec kit, a Competition Clutch kit, or an ACT kit? Right now I'm leaning towards the competition.
