Default Some regular maintenance Q's

Well I've kind of neglected my poor SRT the past few months (just bought a house etc. super busy) and it's in need of some new parts. I've been out of the loop on the latest parts out there for our cars so I figured I'd post up for some advice.

First off, spark plugs. Right now I have Denso Iridium ITV22's that have always been a great plug with my stage 3. After porting out my TB, Intake mani, exhaust mani, getting a big IC, and other bolt ons I noticed light bucking at lower rpms under boost. Lately I've experienced heavy bucking under a lot of boost at lower rpms (3500 rpms or so). The plugs have almost 25k miles on them. Probably due for replacement. Thinking of going with the same plugs as I don't see any others out there pregapped this low. I'm thinking .032 is ideal for my setup. Any other plugs with a lower pregap out there?

Secondly I need a new clutch finally. The stocker is VERY tired at 70k miles (stage 3 since 32k and lots of bolt ons at 42k). I did buy a DCR Iron man clutch but sold it once I saw other people having problems with it. I've just babied the car that past 10k miles since the clutch would slip on a 3rd gear stomp on the highway etc. It hold for DD but it's getting REAL tough to shift lately when the clutch gets heated up.

So basically any suggestions on a good clutch available now? I dynoed my car minus my AGP IC and it did 400 whp 408 wtq in HOM. Now keep in mind I DO NOT run it in HOM very often at all. It'll see the track maybe a few more times in it's life but it's mostly a fun DD. I baby the clutch otherwise. I just want a clutch that can take that a few times in it's life, but feel like the stocker otherwise for DD.

I'm thinking the mopar clutch, but are there better options out there?

I've really been missing out for months though on the power of this car! I'd like to get the boost cranked back up to 25 and have some fun.
