Out of what you asked for, I would say Ram.

That being said, I would go Monster. Check with SNLPerformance or www.monsterclutches.com

As it is known @ these parts, I am a big advocate of Monster.

Monster Stage III for the win! I love mine so far, it's all broken in and it rips. Now I just need to change my plugs and finish putting my exhaust in and we'll see how much better it really is!
