Default clutch for a 00 a4 1.8t

it seems as mine at 47k is feeling a little different. I need to let it out more to grab now and this is starting to make we want a new car or I may need to replace it. i asked the dealer and they blew me off saying that they were surprised to see that it made it that long in a chipped. anyone have any warranty work done at places other than a dealer. a friend of mine has his eclipse worked on at a friends shop and they use a number to call when they have warranty work done it is usually paid for when it's warranty. i don;t think the dealer is ready to touch the clutch digging into their pockets and i am not ready to dig into mine. if so and i need to does anyone know the pro's and con's of the different aftermarket/performance clutch's and the cost to do the with labor only. thank you.

Default I would look into installing a clutch from a 01 model car.

For 01, they raised the HP for the 1.8T engine to 170, and in the process they stiffened up the clutch a bit. When mine goes, I'm going to look into putting 01 components in place (if it's plug and play). The 00 clutch in my car belongs in a Corolla!
