Default Best Clutch for Supercharged S?

Topic says it all.

My car doesn't actually have a supercharger, but I want a clutch that holds a bit more than stock.

Well, I guess I can do the clutch whenever. My car has 18k miles and I don't drag race or launch, but when I run it through 1-2 I get crazy slipping, to the point where second gear is almost useless because by the time is catches, I have to go to third...

I have a 4.56 gear.

How much does it cost to install a clutch anyway (in so cal)?

Do you still have the clutch delay valve in the slave cylinder?

Actually that sales price is without the CT flywheel.

i do have the cdv in. i wanted to take that out, but read on here that it won't help me w/o a better pressure plate?

I don't know if that's true or not. I'm gonna take it out and see if it's ok, but if it's not, I definitely will need a new clutch. Not sure if I want to get a lightened flywheel (I don't, unless I know for sure that it will help and not hurt anything).

AP2 changes include added CDV and a heavier flywheel. Both of these slow down your upshift and put less stress on the differential when banging through the gears.
