Which clutch has had best performance?

Hey guys i have the stock clutch still but i plan on buying a aftermarket one very soon. What i was wondering was what have other people been putting in theres and if they are happy with it (slippage, drivability) and what price they paid for parts/labor.

Fast06SS uses a spec 2+ and a fidenza flywheel. It's held up perfect after tons of abuse. This is the route I'm getting ready to go, I think it would be somewhere around $1300.00 installed for both.

Yes please respond as I also have to order soon. It seems the only choices right now for the 2.0 is Spec or Clutchmasters.

Will this hold up to 350-400hP? or is stage 3 needed.

It's not the horsepower you need to worry about, it's the torque. The spec 2+ can hold
~385 lbs of torque, which is plenty. These engines don't make that much torque, so I personally think it would be fine. Remember to go with either a 2+ or 3+, those are the only ones worth buying. A 2+ has the same torque capacity as a stage 3, but with better feel. A spec 3+ has the same torque capacity as a stage 4, but with the feel of a stage 3.
INTENSE has these on their site with more info.

Thanks for the info.
I have tried Intense's site and it never comes up right. Even when I downloaded the lastest java, disabled my firewalls. They tell me to just call (I have emailed them) but then no one ever answers the phone. Always a recording and being in Canada that can add up.
