Default Quaife + ACT XTSS or HDSS?

My maximum goal is 300 whp, but for the most part will probably be around 250 whp after tuning until someone comes out with a proven solution to the Greddy boost creep problem with a 2.5" + downpipe. I don't drag race, but I HATE clutches with no feel. I don't want it to feel like stock. Even the Exedy I have now is too light for me, so I'm leaning towards the XTSS. Considering I'll be getting a Quaife installed at the same time, would you guys recommend the XTSS over the HDSS for my daily driver? The XTSS (or 2600 as the DSM guys call it) is the clutch of choice with the DSM guys, but they don't recommend it with FWD. For FWD cars, they usually go with the HDSS (2100). So, I was thinking that since I'll be getting the Quaife, wouldn't I need a stronger clutch to use with the LSD anyway? I'm leaning towards the XTSS, what do you think?

I know, I know. Everyone is sick of clutch questions, but I've searched this forum, along with several other forums and I still can't make up my mind between these 2 clutches. I wan't to order this thing, and I'd really appreciate some opinions.

I run the XXSS on open diff and it has proven itself to me. When the motor was stock running 11 psi (approx. 265 whp) it never slipped once. The pedal is nice and firm. Unfortunately now Im forced to a puck style since my new torque rating will overcome any street disc thats out there.
I will also recommend the Action clutch line. You can do the stage 2k, which offers great engagement with the kevlar lined disc --also holds a greater torque rating then ACT's street disc. Clutch pedal feels firm too. Prices on the Action clutches are less then ACT as well.
