Default clutches

As ive posted before im going to be building a f22a for boost and will be aiming to make 400hp, though i dont really know how much tq.
So ive been looking at clutches rated higher than what i know ill make since its better to over shoot than under shoot. these are the clutches ive come up with and was wondering what would be better for a DD and if anyone has them to say how they like it.
HA3-XTSS // Advanced Clutch Technology
HA3-XTG6 // Advanced Clutch Technology
was looking at exedy's but it seems like the stage 2 only holds 221 which isnt going to be enough, any other idea's also on clutches?

I've heard the XTSS is a great way to go for a fairly commonly driven street car. The important thing is to figure out the torque you're probably going to make. Most clutches are rated AT THE CLUTCH, so therefore, when looking at WHP figures, factor in driveline loss.

400hp is a LOT for a FWD street car. Theoretically, that's enough for 120+mph trap speeds.

yes i know its a lot of power for a street car, BUT its not like I NEED to use it all the time, with a 2871 i shouldnt be at full spool untill 2.8-3k probably and thats only if i put my foot down, this is what i like about boost, its only there if you want it.
now back to the clutch I dont figure ill be making over 350 wtq, i figured in about 10% drive train loss.
