Two days ago my clutch started to slip under high boost in 4th.

Two questions:

1. I'm looking at the Centerforce Dual Friction - good choice or is there something better. The car's not too ridiculous.

2. What should I look out for when getting this replaced? I'm a little paranoid because the clutch was supposedly replaced around a year ago (before I bought the car). I have no idea if they used a stock clutch and it couldn't handle the torque, or if they machined the flywheel wrong etc...

Also, should this be around 10 hours in labor? That seems ridiculous.
