Unhappy Help - clutch not butch enough!

I have recently de-catted my sti6 and the clutch is now slipping, (too much power I guess ) can anyone recommend a good after market one?

Becareful with the AP organic if you do any kind of spirited driving, mine ripped the clutch centre out. See pics in my project for proof.

Spirited driving is what I do!! I have to admit I do enjoy my driving and my hubby's even worse!!

We're not really sure how much bhp we've got - I have a rolling road printout at 265 but given that it has very very long gears that seems v.v. low given that it's definitely quicker than our WRX that's putting out 280!! Then we de-catted it so really need to get another test done, I reckon we're pushing 330-340 at the moment but will probably "enhance" it a little more yet! So need a clutch that can handle about 360-370bhp and some stick!!

If AP isn't the one - which one is??!! And have you any idea of prices?
