The stock dual mass clutch really is a good clutch, but if you want to upgrade to something better, I would recommend a VR6 flywheel, disc and pressure plate. ECS tuning carries everything you need:

Flywheel - Part number: ES#7074

Clutch Kit (Hardware, Disk and Pressure Plate) - Part number: ES#901

Flywheel Bolts (ALWAYS REPLACE! You need 6) Part number: ES#4830

That'll hold a lot more power and torque. Welcome to dubnet, btw!

www.clutchnet.com (http://www.clutchnet.com) has some good options as well.

Dont know about "stock feel" but it will be good..

How many miles did you have on your clutch?? Mine just went out in my 1.8t to with a 100,000 miles.

just about 90,000 miles. i know this is weak but my mom drove my car for about a month while i was at school. pretty sure thats where the clutch went.

Nah... I think 90k is a good life for a clutch in a higher powered car, but atleast you can still blame your mom for part of it : D
