I got my stuff from Blau. Strongly recommend doing the main seal while you're in there. Also remember to mark flywheel position before removing.

I believe the po did the clutch at 110k, and didn't do the freakin 5.00 seal!!...Cuz I have put over 250k on these OEM clutches before with np...Boosting at 1.4 it holds, but breaks away above 1.6 LOL....
Not one of the most fun jobs to do...

for a '90 200Q $315 for the kit
for an '87 5KTQ $265 for that kit

I dont know which car you have but since you have raised boost I'm assumming a turbo, and since most people don't boost automatics too much I'm gonna take a wild guess and say its quattro as well.

BTW the brand of the clutches are LuK. This is the one I had installed in my car, '89 mc2 200q

Later!

I did mine at 125K - lots of clutch left but the throwout bearing was GONE due to previous owner being a dork. Just hit 380K and still holding together. I heard a rumor that removing the engine is the faster way to do the job...
