Default Clutch For Supercharged S?

Hey,

I was wondering what the best clutch/kit out there for a supercharged s2k, as my stock clutch is slipping at high rpms now. I drive the car as a daily driver so I don't want it too harsh of an engagement, but I also don't want it to slip anymore. Also, should I get a lightened flywheel or not?

If I do this install, what special tools would I need to do this? Thanks.

You have an 2003 and the clutch is slipping already? How many miles do you have on it? I have an 2002 with 17K on it and my supercharger install is being finished up as we speak. I hope I'm not out shopping for a clutch tomorrow

Oh...This might help in your search. Clutch Group Buy

anyone think any of these clutch kits will do the trick? Or do I need to add something different? Will any of these kits fix my slipping problem?

I'm running an ACT PP with a Comptech flywheel as are dozens of owners. No problems just satisfaction for me to report.

I installed my S/C about a month ago and I figured I would be one of those guys who didn't need an aftermarket clutch but I have slipping everytime I upshift aggresively and it looks like I will need to upgrade - maybe it varies from car to car but I am saving my pennies as we speak for the upgrade!

I changed my clutch 11,000 miles after SC install. it was down to the rivet. if you do hard lauches and fast shifts occasionally, you will have to change it. also, if possible, change it before sc install...
