I would stay away from either clutch, far to aggressive for what you need. An ACT HDSS would suit your current power level. Depending on your torque level, you may need an XTSS when you hit your power goal.

The ACT holds up well. The comp stage 2 seems to be hit or miss as to some guys like it, and others hate it...

I'm at 342 to the wheels and had an act hdss. Lasted about 60k miles and the clutch dropped to the floor I'm assuming to throw out bearing or clip? But got another one with a new flywheel to be added in this weekend. Make sure the clutch is adjusted properly or you will get lock out. Besides that everything should be all gangsta.
