Default Uprated clutch for Saph Cós.

Hi just want to ask opinions on clutches...I currently run a uprated AP organic kit, but when getting on full boost it slips....so what do you guys use ?

Car is a 2wd Saph running close to 380bhp and 500+ torque .... estimated, but the clutch slips so any advice would be nice ...

I have a 4x4 saph running gt30 turbo , 2 bar of boost, 400+ not set up yet. I have an AP 6 paddle clutch kit. It isn't very nice for town/city driving but you could bet your life it won't ever slip when you put your foot down. Personally When I uprate my gearbox I shall get a hydraulic clutch conversion which should make it alot smoother.

The hydraulic will also make it MUCH MUCH lighter.
I've got mine turned down to 300bhp or so at the mo, but with std cover and plate doesn't slip.
I would go for an alcon 6 paddle.
