you will be best off with an ACT Street/Strip. while you are at it, get a lighter flywheel at the same time.

I agree ACT street/strip clutch. It is not any harder to push down on than stock and clamps much better. With the lightened flywheel, it is a little easier to stall the engine when starting off in 1st. And the car will start to lurch if you let the rpms get much under 2k. But the up side of the flywheel more than make up for it.

I say go with the Cusco single plate clutch. I don't know anyone who has it yet. You'll be unique in the USA and I've read it performs really good too. Not hard to drive and I think it cost a little bit more then the ACT. It's no where near the price of my Mazdaspeed twin plate.
