I just bought a 6 puck disc and their 9.x lb lightweight flywheel. Really good guys to deal with, and fast shipping.

Depends on what kind of clutch you use, and what your personal preference is. Im assuming that you'd like something similar to stock. If you want that stock feel, I recomend the Exedy stage 1 organic clutch.

Will a good performance clutch make the car faster once you have mastered it?

the cluth will grip better so in a way yes but the light weight flywheel will rev faster therefor making your car quicker so in a way yes but flywheel will make you faster than just a clutch but both help alot lol.

A flywheel, normally a heavy wheel that resists sudden changes in speed, thus securing uniform rotation in a machine. A 12+ lb. flywheel is about the best for a street car. A really light flywheel and a grabby clutch will most likely stall your car and or spin tires because of its ablility to rev quicker.

Keep in mind that when you are replacing your clutch, you must have your flywheel resurfaced to ensure even contact.

You could do that, but choosing a clutch is depending on your personal preference. I'd rather have an aftermarket clutch that holds more torque than OE. Don't get me wrong, it's something that you gotta get use to.
