New OEM clutch disc should fix the problem, but yes, it could possibly come back. Don't have any percentages to give you though.

If you don't have forced induction there's no reason to upgrade the clutch. The OEM Exedy clutch is very good and will hold around 200lb/ft of torque, depending on its condition.
