    If you're just doing basic mods, and your clutch doesn't need replacement (and it shouldn't if its an '05), then save your money... its not needed.

    If the clutch is bad, then yah, try to find a deal on an aftermarket clutch... are you planning any big power adders for the future, or just basic bolt-ons? If you are just sticking with bolt-ons... just get the Stage 1 clutch... if you are planning on more serious stuff, or you plan on racing the car at a drag strip or autocross or something similar often enough, then the Stage 2 should be your choice...

    If you are going forced induction at all, definitely go with the Stage 2 clutch then...

    Go to www.jalopnik.com. They linked a video from streetfire with a guy from Fidanza. Think of it as "Clutches 1001". I've only watched 5 minutes of it, and I've learned A LOT.
