Default new clutch for turbo'd coupe

I've finally got enough money to grab a clutch but I have heard mixed reviews on if I need a lighter flywheel when upgrading the clutch. The car now has about 250whp and I'll probably end up getting a clutch with about 50% more clamping force but I need to know if the flywheel is a must, or I can just have my stock flywheel resurfaced for a fraction of the cost. Could you please give me your opinion as well as a reason why, thanks.

i'm loving my 8.8lb prolite. you really need to drive a car with one to see what it's all about. as far as driveability, it's stock once you get used to it (3 hours tops). whoever says its "hard" to drive a car with one is on crack.

i know you don't want to hear this, but search. i remeber there was a great thread in the drag forum (i think) about light flywheels. if you're turboed, as long as your threshold isn't that high, and you can shift quick enough, you'll have no problem staying in boost.
