Default replacing clutch

My clutch is going out and i am thinking about replacing it soon but i am also planning on going FI route in a few months so i was thinking of buying a stronger clutch, i have read through many threads and found many people are using the f1 gripforce clutch with fly wheel bought off ebay for example:

or

No experience but unless you plan on increasing the power by a large margin the oem or oem-equivalent will do fine. In some cases they will actually last longer than ones meant to be more durable - whether that's due to the friction material itself or the way they "need" to be driven I don't know.

after going FI i want toe stay between 200-250hp or maybe even 250-300hp max

i am looking for something that will hold up for around the same price if not a bit more, the only reason i am considering this was the good reviews is got from civic owners, even thought never even heard of this brand

I gotcha, I thought maybe you were only going FI and thought the standard clutch couldn't take it - didn't want you to waste your money
