Default Clutch/Flywheel for Double Duty Car

It seems a lot comes down to personal preference but i just bought a 91 with 127k that appears to have original clutch. My goals for the car are to develop it with 1.6l in regards to maintenance, cooling, braking, suspension and safety and then focus on power. Hopefully by the time i'm ready for TTE i will have a VVT swap.

I am debating the COMBO from goodwin with ACT Heavy Duty STAGE 1 COMPLETE CLUTCH KIT AND ACT PRO-LITE STEEL FLYWHEEL. The other option i am considering is the ACT Stage 1 HD organic combined with the Supermiata 1.6 flywheel. They are very comparable in price, i just want something that i can progress into and not have to worry about replacing down the road.

The tq rating for the combo is 245 and the flywheel is 9lbs

The tq rating for the 1.6 ACT HD is 200 and the Supermiata flywheel is 7.8lbs.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

ACT 1.6L HD Street (organic) + SPM flywheel = capitalist victory

Small typo in the 6 puck vs street clutch description.

Does the xt come with a stronger TOB or stock?

Well i have had these parts for almost a year but life got in the way and didn't have the time to install. I finally got around to installing everything. The 1.6 ACT HD organic street clutch with 949 racing ltw flywheel is a stellar combo. Thank you for your recommendations!

I just need to adjust the clutch engagement point.
