Best clutch disc?

Hi, what do you guys suggest i get for a clutch? I have all the bolt-ons done on my stock S5 turbo engine running 14psi. I have a stock disc/30%+ pp in the car now and its sliding all over (3000mi). I think i glazed it over at the track, but it never felt strong to begin with.

Im going with an 11lb Mazdaspeed flywheel now and i want to stay away from copper or ceramic puck clutches (ACT) to save the flywheel.

Will a Kevlar disc glaze over during drag launches like an organic one will?

Is there any other material i should be looking at that can take 5000 rpm clutch dumps but can also be slipped a tiny bit daily driving without chewing up my flywheel?

You might want to consider the pineapple clutch that rob makes.
Only thing is, is that its engagement is real quick.
But it is not a material that will chew up the disk fast if that’s what you are looking for.
