lately when accelerating in my car i notice that the rpms go up but the car doesn't accelerate more so when cold then after it has warmed up and been running for a while. So I am thinking my clutch is slipping I think I just need a new clutch kit as the pedal play is perfect and I don't have any problems shifting the car in any gear just seems to not grade when I get it too much power. my car is also lightly tuned ram intake, high flow cat, 2" catback exhaust, 9mm spark wires, and platnium 4 plugs. so my question is should I buy a performance clutch with an organic surface or have i not maxed out the grab ability of an oem clutch. also aobut how many hours of labor are invovled in a clutch swap?

First clutch in the vehicle? If so, I think I would stick oem. Knowing what you are doing or have done it before with proper tools - 4-5 hours Otherwise 8-10 hours.
