Default Stage 2 Clutch

So guys, my clutch is slipping. At 140k miles as soon as I enter the powerband it slips. I gotta keep it under 3k RPM other wise it slips. What is the best affordable upgraded clutch. I see that some people say that Stage 2's are crap so to go straight to stage 4. Yet some people are saying that stage 2 are the better option. I just need some guidance so I can fix this asap.

Act HD pressure plate, oem clutch disk, oem pilot bearing and oem throw out bearing.
Unless you are f/i, stage 4 is severe overkill. Stage 2 is overkill for n/a. Keep in mind this is a Honda, these motors don't produce enough torque to tear a wet paper bag.

I have noticed one thing over the years- those recommending stage 4 clutches for n/a setups are usually the guys rocking Invidia n1 exhausts, knockoff wheels, cheap tires and have no idea what leather cleaner and conditioner is.

There is no longer a discernible line between a question and trolling. The ignorance being preached on all the Facebook pages have actually created a community of "experts" that have no idea about what they are saying or what it means. They just regurgitate what some stance kid says and hold it as the holy word.

It did not sound like trolling, but it does sound like he was reading a few comments on facebook's s2k talk & tech

Not trolling, just repeating information of what some 'experts' have said.
