Favorite clutch to replace stock one

I will have to replace my clutch soon and wanted some opinions on a replacement clutch. It is a daily driver with just a tune and someday drag radials or slicks.
Thanks in advance

I had very poor results from a Centerforce clutch in my previous car, a 2004 Mach1. From what I could read so far, from Boss forums, a Spec clutch (cheaper) or a Mcleod either RST or RXT (more expensive) seemed to be the ticket. Just sharing my own experience here. Good luck.

Stage 2 is another good replacement clutch. Have it, and it feels close to stock.

I went with Spec in my cobra and it was great. Center force does well when they are new but don't seem to stay that way for long.

Clutch longevity is all in the installation and also replacing all the other parts of the clutch system. You get into trouble if you only replace the clutch and not the rest.
