When I had my IX I purchased ACT Extreme pressure plate with 6 puck
And flywheel I bought was Exedy, 13 pounder .
Clutch gripped no problem. After I sold the car new owner said it's starts to slip.

WORKS CK2. Had it for 3 yrs, 46K miles. Stock pedal pressure, rated to hold 450 lb/ft torque, has a full-face kevlar disc. Race clutch capabilities, street clutch personality. 
No chatter/judder on takeoff. Use it in DD rush hour traffic everyday, no complaints! It is overkill for my power level... probably would've went with the CK1 if I was to do it again though.

I had the ACT MB7-HDG6 with a streetlite flywheel installed into my Evo about 8 months ago and I'm a bit torn over it. The first week owning it SUCKED. I stalled my car more times breaking in that clutch than I did learning how to drive a stick. Once it was broke in and I got used to it I found it holds strong and works very well 90% of the time.
I have one main issue with it though....it absolutely blows when you try to get moving from a stop on a hill. I have to commute from one side of downtown Seattle to the other every day so I've had to modify the route I take to minimize the amount of steep hills I have to go up. Even using the e-brake (which I suck at and never had to use with any of my other manual vehicles), I always worried about stalling or rolling back into the car behind me (which is usually up my ***).
If I had to do it over again I would go with the MB7-HDSS with the OEM flywheel.
