Competition Clutch 2 vs 3.5

So I'm in need of a clutch as the stocker is slipping at 70k miles. I've read great reviews on the Competition stage 2 and 3.5, So I think I'm gonna be sticking with one of these, I'd like to get the 3.5 for future upgrades but the stage 2 would do for now.
The only thing I'm concerned about is what the difference in longevity is of the kevlar vs the ceramic clutch material.

Anyone had the 3.5 for any kind of mileage?

I remember being in the same boat as you and I chose the stage 2 HD. The reason being is that I commute 100+ miles a day (highway) with the occasional spirited driving. Remember English Racing uses the stage 2 on their 500tq car. I also grandpa my car most of the time and went back to stock (power wise). I'd say the stage 3.5 is overkill for a car that is daily driven and from what I hear it is rough for street use especially on hills.

Yea I DD mine as well, about 80 miles per day. I don't think I would mind the clutch being a little more harsh as I rarely get into traffic but I definitely don't want to be doing another clutch in 20k miles either.
