Spanked by VW! Need new clutch. Suggestions?

It seems that it has come to the point that my engine is now more than a match for the clutch. First, it was my neighbor spanking me with his new 540i as I was left at the light with nothing but a cloud of clutch smoke. The last straw was last night when a VW Jetta left me at the light again. When the light turned green, I bolt in 1st and then power shifted to second and nothing! It actually seemed like I was slowing down. The engine was headed for the finish, but the car was not going. Damn, the clutch again! I could tell right away by the smell.
Any one have any good suggestions on a high performance clutch for my '94 9000 Aero? Swedish Dynamics offers a new friction plate but it looks like you have to switch to a pre'91 assembly - this does not really appeal. I believe that Sach offers a pressure plate good up to 600Nm torque. I have also seen various paddle type friction plates (Abbott/AP Racing).
Any thoughts or comments would be greatly appreciated.
