Some folks have had good luck with the CF but I had vibration issues with mine. I've got a McLeod now and am happy with it.

I run CF (Dual Friction) on four cars. No problems and the pedal won't wear you out.

Centerforce dual friction here!

I like it.
Hooks great with a light pedal.

At 400 hp, you can buy a clutch from just about anyone.
I havent run across any street/strip type diaphragm clutches that had excessive amounts of pedal pressure.
I have used Zoom in the past with no problems, but its been quite a few years.
I'm using a Ram clutch now and its been good too.

I have a Zoom in mine...works very well, nice takeup, no chatter, no vibration...but a ton of pedal. CF is a few more $$$ but is easier not only on your left leg but also on all the linkage.
