I run the ACT 6 puck sprung. It was a little touchy for the first couple of weeks but after it seated it wasn't bad. The sprung version is a good compromise and offers a small amount of cushion for engagement and drive line protection. This clutch will take a lot of abuse over an organic street clutch, but you must sacrifice some drive-ability to get there. Many people with your setup run the street/strip and are very happy with it.

I'm running the ACT 6 puck sprung disc and ACT Xtreme PP and I'm happy with it. Like the guy above me said, you will sacrifice some comfort but its not too bad. My mods are the same as yours except I have a 3" catback, a PowerFC, 12psi boost, and Greddy front mount intercooler. Just make sure to get a new clutch fork when you get the clutch done.

thanks for all the input i plan on going single next year after i run the car for a season. and yess goodfella it is small, but it came with the car so i cant complain im going to be going with a rb cat back sooner or later.
it looks like i will go with the act but im still going to look around because the cars my weekend driver, id like to go a little cheaper than the act but once agian im not going to pay 100 less for a crap clutch and have it burn up prematurly. but also im going to be aiming for the 450 hp range next spring so i dont want to pay for a clutch that will be usless next year. my guess is the best place to get a clutch from is malloy mazda, i will of coarse be doing the slave the master resurface the flywheel, and replace all the berings, it just makes sence since your taking it apart anyways.
