I used to have the Bonez clutch. I didn't like it very much, since there wasn't a noticable difference in pressure, and I still burned it up at the track. I just ordered the ACT HD clutch kit and ACT Prolite flywheel from rx7store.net. We shall see...
Edit: Pilot bearing is fun to remove!!!

I have the ACT street/strip clutch and HD PP.
I've spun the tires going into third. The clutch could be a bit more grippy though, it feels a lot like stock...

And when replacing the pilot bearing, get the correct bearing puller. I had access to one and it was a breeze. Took less than 5 minutes. Guess I got lucky

If you want a good clutch that isn't that heavy duty of a clutch then go with an Exedy OEM replacement. They are actually cheaper than the stock Mazda clutches and a hell of a lot better.
Now if you want an upgraded clutch that can handle substantially more power then stock and comes with a lightened flywheel then check out the Exedy hyper singles.
A lot of people like the ACT clutches and XACT flywheels, but I have had nothing but bad experiences with them so I refuse to ever use them again. Just my .02
