Default Noob Clutch Q's

I'm currently putting together my first project and it is now time to decide on what clutch to run on it....but problem is i really dont know much about clutches at all. I'm going to be running a B16A w/ LSD with just your basic bolt ons for awhile in a 92 cx hatch. My plan later on down the road is to run a turbo setup that a guy locally puts together pretty regularly that should put down around 275 @ 10psi. Yet this could be a year to 2 years before i get to do this. I plan on using the car as just a daily driver and occasional weekend drag racing at the local track. So my questions are the following

1)On just a b16 w/ bolt-ons what type of clutch should a be looking at?

2)On a boosted b16 putting around 275whp what type of clutch should a be looking at?

3)How long does an average clutch last?... should i start with a not so heavy clutch for now, and then just change clutches down the road when i decide to boost?

Any help would be appreciated, just lemme know your thoughts and what my general concerns should be while making this decision. Thanks.
