i put in the mb8-xtss clutch in mine and it holds up very nice to 7psi of boost. i coupled that with the rrm/clutchmasters light weight flywheel. the clutch itself is act's lowest strip/highest street style disc and pressure plate.

i got the clutch from here:

Couldn't we also just pick up a Staged Mirage clutch.. And well a new throw-out bearing too from Mitsu. It would be cheaper right?

not sure on the mirage clutch but i do know that the tob for an 02-03 will cost you 140 bux from mitsu (the tob is a whole assembly with a spring behind it, and the 04-up have a tob thats on a fork) and that most of the auto parts stores (well at least here around madison wi) dont even list the tob

i believe that the act's are made here in the usa. go to the act website for more info. i think they rate their clutches by clamping force and if i remember correectly the rrm clutches are an act but just not mentioned last time i talked to act, about 5 months ago.
