Default Clutch + flywheel.

Search was done but I didn't really find the answer for my question, so here it goes:

I might be going turbo in few months but I do need a clutch now.
I need a clutch that has almost stock pedal feel and can hold up few ponnies.

If I got like hardcore clutch that is recommened for cars with turbo would this cause any damage to my transmission?

I heard somewhere that clutch capacity has to be 10-20% more than power you're engine makes in that case if I buy for example, ____ stage 4, which holds up to 350whp, and my car only makes 140 at the moment that wouldn't be good would it?

I know my car won't ever make more than 225whp if that helps.
Recommend a good clutch for me?

Also 12lbs+ flywheel for boost?

i have a clutchmaster 8lbs flywheel with the clutchmaster stage 4 clutch.. the pedal feel feels just a tad bit harder than stock but it grabs VERY well.

I plan on boosting in the future and I've heard that lighter flywheel + boost aint cool.

Basically I need some suggestions for a clutch that can hold up to 225whp, but also be put on 140whp engine and have no worries anything bad will happen, something that grabs good, and has a nice pedal feel.

More opinions are welcome.

Anyone over here running ClutchMasters stage 3 with ACT 12lbs flywheel?
How is yours experience with that combo?
