For clutch selection, you need to watch yourself on the terminology. The "stages" implemented by various companies are merely generalizations which are not standardized throughout the industry. A "stage 4" clutch from Company A may be only a "stage 3" clutch from Company B. You need to calculate your approximate torque and buy a clutch accordingly.
On my last setup, which made 315whp/216wtq, i ran an Exedy Stage 2 Cerametallic and loved it. It held the power on the street AND on slicks. I have since built a new shortblock and increased my goals. For my new setup i picked up a Competition Clutch Stage 4 sprung unit. It had the torque capacity i needed to meet my goals.
I think this question would be better answered in FI; although, i'll leave you to make that decision. If you post there, tell people of your goals and let them do the rest.
