Default Your Opinion on clutches

I have a 92 Ex 5spd. Going to be puling the motor out and have a few things to fix. Timing Belt, Water pump, Oil pan gasket, And the Clutch. Needing something just above OEM. Going to be pulling off A/C and start working towards boosting the car. Nothing radical at all. But does anyone have hands on experience with different clutches? Been checking out the exedy 08801a. Any help here would greatly speed up the down time coming up!

How much power do you plan on making? I would go by that. Regardless, I am a fan of competition clutch.

Is there a reason you prefer competition over exedy? Just wondering, because I am trying to piece together an auto-manual swap and am looking for a clutch kit.

I'm curious of all this as well.
I've decided I want a Fidanza flywheel, and I was contemplating "F1 Racing" clutch disk. I've heard good and bad things, so I have no idea.
Exedy is known to be awesome. They made the OEM clutch parts for Honda didn't they???
I guess it depends on power, and how much you're willing to spend.
I'm going to be making less than 150 so I should be alright with a $200 clutch? =P
