Default best clutch/flywheel set-up for 250whp?

I'm getting ready to swap in a JDM B18B into my DA that I have plans of boosting soon. I'm putting a new clutch and flywheel on it before it goes in the car though so I need something that will hold up to my goals for the motor. I'm not looking for anything crazy, aiming for around 250whp on about 10psi. What would be the best clutch and flywheel set-up for me? I dont want anything too light for the flywheel, just a little lighter than stock maybe. And I have no idea what clutch would work best. Let me know what you guys think.

Go with the exedy stage 1 for 300whp and under. It'll do just fine and wont break the bank.

I have heard quite a few horror stories about XTD clutches so I'm not quite sure I want one. I was considering the exedy stage 1 but I didnt think it would be strong enough for what I'm looking for. Its only got like 30% more clamping force than stock right? Well if I'm at around 250 whp/trq thats about twice as much power as stock, so how would only a 30% increase in clamping force be good enough for that much more power?

I like my centerforce duel friction, 280.00 for the disk and p-plate. 90% more gripping force. No more slipping under boost!
