just go ahead and upgrade. a stage 1 is about the same amount of $$ as the oem one.

ok just got back from pep boys decided to go with the oem cause it had a lifetime warranty and im planning to go B in the future so dont need something too extravagent. the brand is luk and it was made in south africa which is were i was born so i have faith in this product lol. just a quick question how much is the average shop price to get this installed and how time consuming will the install be considering me doing it myself and w/ a friend?(its a daily driver so need it running for school/work).. how much does flywheel resurfacing cost? and is it really nessacery(forgot how to spell that for a minute)?

I just had my mechanic put an ACT XTSS clutch in my car and it cost me 275.00. I think it took him 6 or 7 hours to do it. If u have never put a clutch in before I would not try it because i think u have to take ur axles out, losen motor mounts etc.
