Which clutch should I get?
#25
factor in 400$ in labor minimum Tom you got screwed if they put in a oe clutch for 800$/ My ACT XT was 307$ shipped. Just get the street disc and you will be fine the XT has a good bit of pedal pressure to it a HD or the ebay clutch will work just fine for 200 whp. But the ebay clutch is not very long lasting atleast mine wasn't 12K miles of use left a noticable difference in new vs when i took mine out but i beat it pretty hard. and never broke it in either.

+1 ACT XT w/organic street disc no problems and holding at 12-14psi (1.8). Installing clutch was ez, reinstalling tranny was PITA.. Get quotes - if you find one that doesn't suck and have the $ to burn that's the route I'd go if I had to do it again (that is if I don't end up pulling motor by the next time I need a clutch).

A buddy of mine is running a stage 2 from eCLUTCHMATERS on his 96 with an mp62 at 12 psi. Has about 6k on it with no problems.

Moral of story, its worth an extra hundred dollars or even more to go with the sure thing with a clutch ... I wish I did. OTOH if you are completely strapped for cash and have lots of time to work on your car, then a cheap clutch is less of a gamble.
