What clutch to run??

[rsexy14]

Im swappin a k24 into my base rsx and goin tubo in the near future cuz i obviously want more hp/tq. my question is what clutch can i use that will match up with my 5spd rsx trans and k24 motor? ive made a dozen phone calls and no one can give me a straight answer. i've mostly been lookin at ACT and Exedy, but i think ACT is more in my price range. i know i have to get the clutch to match my trans but i was told that the flywheel must match the engine, but like i said i get shady answers. here's the setup im lookin at, please tell me what u think.

i had a 12 lb flywheel in my civic (D16y8 w/ jrsc) and wished that i had gotten a lighter one. the k24 should have a much greater mass of the rotating assembly to give you that much more inertia for launching/starting from a stop. i would get the lighter one, especially w/ a turbo. the quicker you can get the engine to rev off idle, the faster you will be able to build boost.
