clutch offerings for 2.4 turbo

Im installing my turbo setup tomorrow and in a few weeks i should have the cash for a new clutch. i originally wanted a spec 3+ because i plan to run about 300-350whp on the stock motor and after i rebuild anywhere from 400-500.. wut would be a good clutch for a 2.4 looking to have about 350-400whp?

exedy stg 2s are like 360 shipped on ebay but i know nothing about them. every other vendor ive seen only has the exedy stg 1 and the various spec clutches which ive heard problems about.

I have the Exedy Stage2. Its awesome. Nice and firm and after broken in its easier to drive in traffic. I actually hate driving soft clutched cars now. I also did not need to replace anything to get it to work. Been running it for 6500 miles and still strong. Just make sure you get the street version, which has more meat.

clutchmasters fx300 for just under a year so far. works awesome, no slippage and feels slightly harder than stock. highly recommended

no, you can purchase injector clips for what you need on the internet and wire them in. the tricky part will be tuning but there are several tips on here for tuning the racetronix 79s.
