Default Which Clutch??

I am getting the Greddy turbo kit and will eventually shoot for 200 at the wheels....
my stock clutch is so weak and childlike and i am very dissatified with its perforance after the pulley, intake, header, axleback, tightened throtle cable, and engine dampner.
I am going to need to upgrade especially when i get the t/c and would like to know what is the best clutch to get for a daily driver that would still suffice for a little 1/4 mile fun.
I am willing to pay for the best out there and that is what i'm interested in. Money is not an issue.
tell me what clutches you guys are running and how satisfied you are with them.

It's has a stiffer pedal feel and the clutch grabs quickly and hard.
It doesn't slip much at all.

We've been using the Clutchmaster clutches in our tC's. We're getting ready to install one in the xB, so I'm sure we'll have impressions on it very soon.

The stock clutch started slipping about 24 hours after driving the turbo bread box around town. ;)

the Clutchmasters xB clutch is very nice.
grap is very positve feel.
pedal feel is a small bit more than stock. (i only noticed because i have bad knees)
a small bit of chatter after a few months...but only in neutral..

i use the TRD clutch, im not sure what stage it's considered, i think a stage 1 because the clutch disc is still organic. i cant imagine using a stage 2 clutch for daily driving, cause mine is tricky enough to get smoothe gear shifts when cruising

I also have the SPEC stage 2+ not good if you need to do a lot of stop and go, it's pretty jumpy
