What clutch to get?

Hello, All

My TL currently has 120k on it and i am in need of a new clutch.( well not really in need,but i can feel its not gripping quite well) I am wondering which do you guys prefer and should i replace the flywheel as well?

I want to go OEM, but open to suggestions.

Thanks in advance!

Go oem.
I just changed my clutch on 11/5/2010.
I bought the clutch set from acuraoemparts.com for about $250.
then had a local shop change out the clutch for $400.

Anyone else? Did you have to change your flywheel as well?

Did you purchase your TL new?

Did you beat on the clutch?

There really is no "set answer" or "fix solution" to our clutches yet. No one seems to make one that lasts, just go OEM unless you are heavily moded.
