Clutch choice's what to get??

[EXP]

Clutch blew last summer and was finally able to get around to pulling trans out
looking for a choice's for clutch and pressure plate replacements
engine is bored out 1.8 g60 block with turbo about 290 hp with FBW 5 speed trans from mk4 1.8 T
I have a lightened G60 flywheel allready
clutch was SPEC
something for daily to spirited driving with out a heavy pedal
what and where to get it locally if possible
also need so aluminum welding done, any suggestions?
Thanks

I'd go with a Southbend Stage 2 Daily, maybe stage 3.

We do Tig welding at Calgary Autoworks.

They set me up with a southbend stage 2 on my 16vT mk2, and a stage 3 on my 1.8T mk2, and both were great. the stage 3 was surprisingly drivable.

I had a spec stage 3 on the 1.8T build before, and it felt a bit like an on/off switch.

I have/had a Spec in my allroad and it is awful and now failed. Awaiting some time to put a Southbend in.

going with Southbend stage 3, stage 2 seems it is boarder line on the power, stage 3 might be some overkill but at least it will hold
Pulled out a Spec due to failure, pressure plate fingers failed
