I'm not sure about what flywheel is on your car now. Aaron seems to believe you already have the new style.
If you do have the wrong flywheel, you can get a 91+ non-turbo flywheel and bolt it up. Then you don't need to mess with timing marks.
I believe you have the smaller clutch. I checked a couple of online websites, and the part numbers do not match for a 1993 C900 and a 1994 9000 clutch.
The smaller clutch can only handle 200+ Hp has gorper states. This has been proven time and again on this board. As soon as the boost hit's 1/2-3/4 red, the next thing people post about is what clutch to buy!
If you plan on doing any serious upgrades, then you will run into clutch problems.
The 9000 pressure plate and clutch is about 2 pounds heavier than the smaller one, so you may want to consider getting your flywheel lightened a little bit.
I can't comment on kevler/copper clutches, but I've heard some people say that they can be harder on the tranny because you can't slip them. It's more on/off type feeling.
