I 'm just looking for a good performance clutch. I've heard a few things a centerforce dual fiction, and a few others, but which one is the best for the price.

Are you going to heavily mod your engine? If not, then an OEM clutch will be more than sufficient. but be sure NOT to get the "Key Value" kit. it's crap. get the good OEM clutch parts, and they'll last you another 10 years.

Well, I plan on doing every mod that I can. I want something that will hold with a 100 shot of NOS or Turbo,
and since I have the turbo and the exaust manifolds I plan on using them when I can afford the rust or the parts I need. Will the centerforce Dual Friction hold that kind of power?

the centerforce might, but I would recommend the ACT clutch instead. it's quite a bit heavier and will withstand just about anything short of 400hp.
(from what I hear)

Do they sell the ACT clutch in different stages or is there only one? And who do you know that has one? What is a good price?

I need a new clutch soon. This shop by my house quoted $350.00 not including installation for the ACT. Centerforce makes a dual friction which is on www.nopi.com for about $215.00. I'm not sure about Centerforce quality though, i've heard good and bad. All good things about the ACT though (if you feel like spending those extra ducks).

Centerforce make 2 clutches for the Max Stage 1 And the dual friction. The stage 1 will hold 30% more than stock and the dual friction will hold 90% more.
Stage 1 $212.31
Dual Friction $289.09
Prices are at NOPI
You will also need a new release bearing
