King cobra clutch is a good clutch for the money. pedal effort is also pretty reasonible.

I personally didn't like the k.c. It wasn't much better than stock and had a harder pedal. I would go with Spec

The centerforce dfx has a lighter feel than the king cobra and you get even more holding power. I know guys with 400 hp that beat on it and it holds up.

Dont know anything about KC but I just put centerforce in mine a month ago. Its awesome, no clutch fade and it hooks like a beast.
Now I need more tire!

What are your mods and intentions for the car. For street and occasional trip to the track w/ light mods, a dual friction will be fine. If you will be pushing in upwards of 400 hp and going to the track often, the centerforce dfx is a great choice. i would not run it on the street for the first choice I posted. it's a lil aggressive for street driving. Both have awesome, like stock pedal feel.
