My clutch is going to be replaced soon, so I was wondering if it would be a better idea to get a spec stage 1 from CTA or going with a stock replacement. Any opinions?

Stage 3 for an otherwise stock setup? Isn't that a little aggressive? I don't have any plans for a turbo or SC ( )... unless I win the state lotto ...

Oh yeah, I replied back to your PM too, Jon.

I used a LUK Pro Gold Clutch Kit and I can break the tires loose into 3rd gear and it doesn't slip, this is done while holding the gas pedal down even while shifting. I believe it is equivalent to stock. Good pedal feel also.

Easy way for you to find if it is too agressive. Take a drive to Ogden, or meet me in Layton, and Ill let you see what it is like.

Plus it will give me reference as to what a OEM manual, even if it has a failing clutch, feels like.
