Default 89 Crx, what ACT clutch should I get?

Guys no I have the chance to get a nice clutch, I have a d series engine, with a 89 Si tranny, This engine has the head fully built for turbo, I have my kit almost complete, I'm going to be boosting around 10 psi, I just wanted to know what clutch would do the trick for me.

I dont want to go higher than Heavy Duty Pressure Plate since my car is my daily driver and I dont want to lose my foot pressing the clutch pedal, what disc do you guys recommend?

plenty of holding power with your engine. not too much pedal strain. its a sprung disc so it will be smooth on the street

remember I'm going to be boosting 10 psi in a couple of days, are you sure that setup would hold close to 200 whp?

well with a turbo d you make about the same torque as hp so assuming you are at about 200 ftlbs also, it should hold. its rated at 230 some and that gives you over the 10% buffer that they recommend.

if you dont think it will hold i say go to the next level pressure plate. i one of there mid range pressure plates on my car. its not too heavy. heavier then stock, but its still way streetable if you arnt 85 lbs soaking wet
