Swed. Dynamics Copper Clutch Disc/Kit: OEM Pressure Plate? (long)

My plan: Replace 1988 turbo clutch with 1991 900 turbo clutch and flywheel
My problem: what clutch kit to use
I just received an e-mail reply to an inquiry I made at Swedish Dynamics:
I asked if their clutch kits (disc, pressure plate, T.O. bearing) used special pressure plates or if they used OEM. Turns out they do use OEM Sachs pressure plates.
SPG9 sells a clutch kit for the c900.... a centerforce, using all centerforce parts. It costs about 3 times what Swedish Dynamics wants for a copper disk, and about double what they want for a kit.
I am thinking that part of my clutch slip problem (which began to slip after only 5K miles) is because the stock pressure plate cannot take the power. The disc obviously can't hang with it either, though the copper unit should.
Do you guys think the Swedish Dynamics copper disk (for a 91), matched with the larger surface area of the 91 flywheel and pressure plate, will cure my slip problem (for at least 20,000 miles?) Or do I need to shell out the cash for the SPG9 centerforce unit? Can't afford the aluminum flywheel right now. : (
Sorry for the long post.
