June 2007, I got mine:

Like I said, I love it except for the fusing potential. Great clutch for a DD that doesn't get launched, even if you're making a ton of power/torque. I'd consider a comp stage 3 if I had to do another right now.

My friend (Scheides) fused his SouthBend Feramic to a stock flywheel after 1 launch; I was with when it happened. He then got a replacement from SouthBend and decided to go with the Fidanza flywheel and has had no issues yet (but has done zero launches). The clutch does have great feeling pedal pressure so the pressure plate gets two thumbs up from me. I had a Southbend in my DSM and loved it, but been hearing too many issues as of late to consider one in my Evo. Scheides and I have another buddy with a A4 and has had fusing issues with the SouthBend Feramic clutch material. If you're set on Southbend, look one step below the Feramic material and get the Kevlar.
Regarding Scheides suggesting the Competition Stage 3 (kevlar) clutch, I am running a prototype version of it and have overall been happy with it. Once the clutch becomes publicly available I will post a my full review/impressions.
Of all the clutches currently available as of right now though, for a daily-driving making decent power, I'd suggest the Fidanza 3.2.
