Help me choose a new clutch

Hey Guys,

After a year of mods, my OEM clutch is starting to slip. I'm currently running a 2010 R55 Factory JCW with:
Catless DP and Resonator Delete
Forge FMIC
K&N filter & Alta Inlet
All new hot side and cold side pipes
Accessport Stage 3

I drive approx 5000 miles a year, 95% stop and go slow speed city with hills, with 5% angry fast highway. No track driving on anything like that yet.

I'm looking at JMTC for a Single Mass clutch conversion kit or something similar. My concern here is that the car needs to be street friendly, so unfortunately none of the Stage 3 Ceramic "On/Off switches" are an option.

Any recommendations?

I just did the clutch on my 12 r55 JCW. Honestly i just ordered the stock JCW clutch through mini mania. I also stuck with the dual mass flywheel for better city driving, which is 95% of my driving. The other reason i kept the dual mass is I hate clutch chatter.
