Default Clutch Questions

Hey guys I am looking for a clutch for my 99 Civic SI and I have a bunch of questions. I currently have a stock car(I/E, suspension) but soon will be turboed (t3/t04e at 7 psi with an intercooler and all the basics, not anything crazy but hopefully 200hp at the wheels.) I am in need of a clutch now and figure ill get one for the turbo and drive it on the stock car for a couple of months. Anyway I think i may be asking to much out of a clutch. First I would like to be able to handle the extra power. I would like a durable clutch that can take 5k rpm drops and slipping and hard driving ect. I would really like no chatter, not to harsh and a near stock feel would be a benefit but not necesary. Also I do not want something so harsh it will ruin drivetrain components or axles or anything. I have done many searches but have heard mixed reviews. I have heard certain clutches cant be slipped and u just have to dump it ect. I am looking at this clutch. How do you think it is for my application:
EXEDY RACING STAGE 1 FULL ORGANIC SINGLE PLATE CLUTCH
EXEDY P/N: 08800B

* Clamping Load: 1560 lbs

* Torque Capacity Increase: 32%

* Clutch O.D.: 220mm


**CLIFF NOTES**

What clutch for a Turbo 99 Civic SI (t3/t04e at 7 psi with an intercooler and all the basics) that retains stock characteristics but can handle the extra power?

How is the EXEDY RACING STAGE 1 FULL ORGANIC SINGLE PLATE CLUTCH?

Can i temporarily run the clutch on a near stock car for a couple of months?

same here prettylude. I I put in both in my 93 prelude si and i love the feel and bite of it. I have pretty bug legs personally and like the feel of a stiffer pedal, even if its overkill for my car. Sadly I am selling that car this weekend But i plan to put something close to the same in the integra im now working on

Can't beat the Exedy Full face organic stage 1 clutches. My bro put one in his GSR, i recently put one in a CRX Si, and I just put one in my GSR. They have an upgraded clutch disk with an inner and outer spring in the disk. Plus they are a complete kit with pilot bearing, throwout bearing, and alignment tool.
