13 flat is basically stock... Purchase a stock clutch... They go for something like $400.

Another alternative would be an ACT or Competition Clutch.

The ACT is somewhere around 650-700 dollars, the CC is somewhere between 450-500 dollars, but a stock clutch will suffice.

If you want more clamping force than stock then go for the Exedy stage 1, a very good kit, I think it's around $600 (clutch & cover).

I had this clutch and loved it. Great pedal feel, easy to drive, and can handle some power for when you decide to mod the car some more!

Labor is around $400-500...+/- ... Some evo oriented shops are $550 - $650.... prices vary and you'll come across shops offering discounts on labor if parts are purchased there...etc....just shop around and pick a reputable shop near you to do the work and will stand behind their work.

Or do it yourself!

Just shy away from lightweight flywheels unless you absolutely hate your daily driver.

If you don't plan on modding the car for a while I would get the Exedy stage 1.

Did you go with the sprung or unsprung kit? And can some explain the difference?

Same boat - looking at Comp Clutch stage 2 - lightly modded evo w/stock turbo.

Lightweight flywheel + AWD system = catastrophic bogging.

Unsprung is uncivilized for the street and a daily driver, it's more concentrated on quick shifting / handling more power than being comfortable for driving.
