Default Depends what you want out of your car

I got my stage III SPEC, and it squeals like crazy. I still can't pinpoint the problem, but I have recently aquired this problem where the clutch sticks a bit, like the TOB is going dead. It holds like a champ, but sounds like crap when engaging first gear when cold.

Default i don't NEED one just yet, but....

i will need one soon and if i can save nearly $100 i think it's worth it. plus i can get it installed for free.

then i'm debating about stage 2 vs stage 3. chances are i wont be stepping up to anything larger than my turbo now so stage 2 seems like the logical choice. i'm just wondering if i'd see any benefits to one stage over the other. thoughts?

Default Go for it then.

If you can get the install done for free, I'd grab the light weight flywheel and the 6 puck stage 3 (sprung hub) clutch/pressure plate. Then when you step up to the plate for a stg3 you're good to go. Besides, the light weight wheel will make the car more fun right now
