For 400bhp+ i will settle for an Exedy Organic clutch stage 1(aka pink box).That should do the Job nicely,If you like to do some competitive standing start launches its better to opt for a twin plate but for most usage the stage 1 is sufficient.I will forget the paddle clutch if i was you as that is only good/beneficial in the race track.

AP Racing organic will happily do the job and be a lot more drivable than exedy

A twin plate is obviously better than organic clutch.Drivability with it is almost the same as the organic though its a little noisier.It costs 3 times as much as the organic(exedy organic vs exedy twinplate) though.If you have the money go for it,it will hold the launches better than the organic.A little cheaper alternative is the ap organic as above.It holds power better than the exedy organic one(its more expensive as well) but still not as good as the twinplate.

Once you factor in the fact that the Exedy Twin Plate kit comes with a lightweight flywheel, it works out at only twice the cost of an Exedy Racing Organic + Lightweight Flywheel.

The Twin plate kits are serviceable and last longer, but are not as nice to drive as the Exedy Racing Organics.

For your power and usage I would opt for the Exedy Racing Organic (Anti-Judder) and lightweight forged flywheel.

I will PM you a price for the package
