Clutch slipping or? I can be driving around and my clutch will act fine. But as soon as I go WOT it'll start jerking really bad, and sometimes my clutch will stick to the floor or it will barely have any clutch left. Any suggestions?
Stock clutch? With that setup you're running, chances are the stocker isn't able to hold up to the power you're putting down, hence the sticking to the floor and possibly slipping. Time to upgrade.
Agreed, if it's stock with those mods it's not enjoying life. Give us a call and we'll get some more detailed information from you. We'll help you from there whether you buy from us or not. 
Sounds more like a master cyl or slave, if it was slipping, when you are in gear and give it gas it will just rev. 4th gear at low rpm, floor it, if it bogs, its not the clutch, if it revs, its the clutch.
If it is completely done then it will do that, eventually I think that will happen in his case as it gets glazed more and more. If it is slightly overpowered then the clutch will be slipping at peak power and the extra heat will cause the diaphragm springs to be weak and the clutch will not disengage as the pedal gets soft from the fluid boiling. High temp fluid helps, but again it's only a band-aid as is removing the assist spring to take tension off and help the pedal return.
