Default Clutch recommendation for 400whp / 300wtq

Hello,
I recently purchased an AP2 with a Turbo kit making about 400whp. The car has a pretty brutal clutch - from my RX-7 days I'd say it's a racing 6 puck or similar.

What all have you found works well at this 400whp / 300wtq level but with a more reasonable engagement?

Friend who's owned a supercharged S2000 for years now drove the car and commented that the clutch really degraded an otherwise spectacular car. Unfortunately the SOS clutch we originally thought would hold is only rated for 300 flywheel torque. Are there any other proven combinations out there?

Appreciate the feedback!
Best,
John

No need for anything else. It's proven to hold the power with stock like feel and engagement.

I'm supercharged and I've swapped to an ap1 flywheel. I love the feel along with the deleted clutch delay mod.

No need to replace the slave. The clutch delay valve can be removed from the AP2 slave.
