Competition Clutch, Stage 2 anyone?

I was all settled on the Exedy Stage 1 then my local Subie shop highly recommended the Stage 2 Comp Clutch.
Can anyone provide some feedback?

What do you have done to the car? I have been running their Stage 3 in mine for about a year and a half. I personally like it. Comp makes good clutches for the money.

No one driving the Stage 2 Comp Clutch?

Vortech. Here's the decision I'm trying to make:
Comp Clutch Stage 2 kit with lightweight flywheel included ~$675
Exedy Stage 1 no flywheel ~$400
I'm resurfacing the stock flywheel. Is the Comp Clutch so significantly better than the Exedy that I should get spend the extra $ and try to sell the flywheel that comes with the kit?

Why don't you just use the flywheel that the Comp comes with?

I'm not the only one driving the car. Wife and daughter (new driver) drive it occasionally too and I don't want them stalling all the time.

Maybe a newb question but does using a lightweight flywheel really cause that much difference in how it handles? I'm currently rly using the Exedy Stage 2 full face with lightweight flywheel and am not really liking the ride. So now I've been looking for another clutch alternative that is a full face.
