Well, to be able to give a good suggestion we need to know how much torque your car makes and what your future goals are.

Personally I went with a Competition Clutch 5152-2100 and going to resurface the stock flywheel. It is rated for 450tq and will suit any stock block Evo since that can hold more than the stock motor should be ran at

I'm looking been looking and researching for a new clutch to. I've been recommended: Exedy Twin disc Clutch
It's good for up to 535 lb-ft torque. If you're planning for more torque then that, go for a Exedy Triple disc Clutch

If you don't have a crazy built motor go with the new comp clutch they have out.

No need for an extremely aggressive clutch. Only puts more strain on the rest of the drivetrain

There's a ton of options, it all depends on your power level and goals for the car.

If you're planning on keeping the power near stock, the Exedy Stage 1 is great. The ACT HDSS is really good if you're putting down up to 500, or the Comp HD Street. For more than 500, you should start looking at puck clutches. Let us know if there's anything we can do for you.
