Default Need clutch advice

I need some advice on what a good clutch would be for my car. im not sure what clutch is in it now but it isnt holding the power anymore, it slips when i get on it especially on the top end thats when its really apparent. The car is putting down just under 400rwhp so i need something that can hold that with no problem. I am starting to look into the spec 3 and the monster 2 or 3. If you guys have any advice that would be very helpful. also not looking to spend more than 600 or so.

From personal experience here... My spec 3 held quite well and never slipped. However, with that said, it lasted 20k miles. NOT a longevity clutch IMO and I was only making stock 315rwhp at the time. The guy Ive had do work on mine is recommending me a Monster 3 when I do go heads/cam.

Currently running a ZO6, has held up for 60k so far, but Im not making the same kind of power as you are.

ya i definitely want a clutch that will last longer than 20k and will hold good at my power level
