Deepends how much hp and tq you plan on doing. I no mre than 4hh hp / tq I would say act with pro steet flywheel, I had that on my old Evo and was the perfect setup for that power, If A bigger turbo is in your future Exedy Twin may be your best choice!

ACT is a good clutch, not a cheap clutch, but a cost effective clutch. Cheap denotes crappy quality, cost effective is a better word for the ACT unit.

Im actually looking to get a clutch within the next 3 months... Ive narrowed it down to the

ACT vs RPS single disc

With hearing of the lockout problems associated with the ACT I did some searching and RPS makes a single disc clutch that is around $600-650 and a couple people on the board are running it with success! Might wanna look into that as well.
