Default Turbo install ahd clutch break-in recommendations

I'm going to be installing my turbo kit soon and also wanted to save time/money/labor by installing the clutch in as well. Seeing as how most clutches require a break-in, how would i go about tuning it after the full install is done? or is there a way to just get a daily driving map that'll allow me to normally drive the setup until the clutch is broken to tune for power?

I got the stage 4CC and I really don't like it much at all. If you got to do any stop and go up any type of a incline or hill you will absolutely hate it. It's ok on anything flat though..
It does grab!

I broke my Ironman in on the dyno, I don't think it hurt it any, I have over 10k miles on it now and it's no better/worse than the day I put it in.

A CC puck style clutch typicaly does not need to be broke in but I would still put some miles on it before you start beating it up.

CC recommends 300 stop & go miles for the 1620.. I did 700 mixed in a weekend just to be safe, never going over 5500 rpms.. It sucked but I didnt want to be the guy who burned his clutch right after install

Thanks for all of the insight! Now, for a gt35r twinscroll setup making roughly 360+ wtrq, which CC clutch would you guys recommend? the 3 or 6 puck?
