Default Clutch opinions - WRX 2003 approx 320bhp

My wagon is starting to show signs it needs a clutch, lots of judder and feels a clucth burning smell sometimes when reversing.

The cars history is unknown, the seller decided to ignore me numerous times after trying to get a better spec.
I am aware its had some STI tweaks, turbo, intercooler, downpipe and remap, circa 320bhp.

Last think i want is a cheap clutch but at the same time i am not made of money.

Whats people opinions, my mechanic is happy to fit what ever i supply.

Valeo upto the job? or should i be looking for bigger / better clutches?

I did do a quick search and could find anything newer than 4 odd years ago on this matter so appreciate everyone's views.

thanks for the heads up although AS are 300 miles away so will look more local to Essex.
