Default what clutch?

So I have an ek
With a b18c with a greedy kit im boosting 10 pounds and made 234whp and 208lbs torque
Running n act heavy duty pp with an organic disc. Its time to change the clutch and turn up the boost I want to max out the greedy kit and if im lucky I can make 300whp or close to it.
I was looking at competition clutches cause of the price and I daily drive this car. So what's a clutch that's good for daily and can hold id down the power I want to make?

I would go with South Bend Clutch over the ACT. When I switch over to SBC SS-TZ clutch pressure was a little softer then the ACT 2100. But grap better and faster then the ACT 2100 with street disk.

I would try and see how much your clutch will hold. My upgraded pp with a stock clutch held to 370whp. That's if its just a daily driver. I ended up getting a 6 puck clutch and making 450whp now. Its drivable but all the frustration to learn how to drive it, when this goes I will go with something else. If you call what ever company and see what they recommend, but I would stay with some sort of full faced disc. I haven't been too impressed with my competition clutch. I was going to try clutch masters next. My first clutch went bad and blew up after 5k miles. They replaced it no charge and this new one has 20k on it now and it making weird noises and doesn't always let me shift at high rpms. Tech support hasn't been too helpful other than blaming me or everything. I have replaced my whole clutch system 2 times master cylinder and slave lines. If you do some searching there is a post about the not wanting to shift issue. competition clutch from what they were saying has a non stock install height. There have been a bunch of posts about this if you do some looking
