best clutch for boosted civic

My 02 lx has a tsi t25 extreme on it, and i think the clutch is going to need to me replaced. What would be a good clutch for me to get? cant afford something extreme, just need something better than stock, that can handle the extra torque. also, what did you guys pay to replace your clutches? im taking it in tommorow, and dont wanna overpay.

thanks,
jason

Exedy Organic is the best for the price and if your not going to boost it extremely. You might as well get the Act streetlite flywheel also. For both those my install was 200

so would lightening my stock flywheel be safe with a boosted car? if so, how much should i have taken off, and how much does it generally cost to do? the car only has 27000 miles on it, so i dont think its too worn out yet.

act makes a great flywheel. but dont get the prolite. imo its too light and you'll have problems at idle. the street light is supposed to be great with the exedy clutch. let us know how it works because that is the set up that i was going to get; but then the crower cams caame out and now i don't know whether to get the cams or the clutch. in your case you need the clutch.
actually, that's wierd that the clutch went out already.
