Sounds like shyte discs to me. I've never heard of s a zoom clutch, but it sounds like fisher price. Spend a little more for a name brand or OEM clutch and see if it continues. I can't think of anything mecahnical or in the installation that would cause a broken disc.

i dont know i think its clutchmasters it comes in a black box with red letters is that a shitty one on the computer at advance auto it says oem???

cheap parts store clutches + DSM power = Busted clutch. either buy a actual OEM clutch from the mitsubishi dealer or get a well known aftermarket brand like ACT or Centerforce

All of those will have clutches for your car (I'm assuming you have a TSi. If not, then I don't know where to find good clutches for your ESi other than an OEM one from your local dealership).
