I'd go with an ACT.... maybe the 6-puck. That is most likely going to be what I upgrade to as well.

The 6 puck is not a great clutch for the Evo.

Get an Exedy Twin HD like everyone else. It's noisy, but it can hold a ton of power and you can slip it great on launches.

+1 on the Exedy twin disc HD, I have a buddy with the ACT 2600 and his clutch is a pain to drive in traffic! I have the Exedy twin disc and driving in traffic is no more difficult then the stock clutch. Just my .02

You can't go wrong with a Quartermaster Twin, much nicer to drive in terms of pedal feel than the exedy. Stock like clutch feel yet it holds all the power you can throw at it.

Exedy or Carbonetics from my experiance in a daily. I would never run a QM on the street they wear too fast. But if you really like to drag race, that is the clutch to go with.
