Default 3dr cossie Clutch

Can I ask your recommendations for a complete clutch or mix of clutch parts for my 3 dr. it runs 300 bhp and I don't want a paddle clutch or anything to heavy.
looked at the Borg+beck uprated clutch kit and Matt Lewis organic kit.
but would like to know your experience and recommendations
thanks

From my personal experience i wouldn't bother with anything other than a 6 paddle.

The helix as said above is apparently the one to go for and it what I'll be putting in mine this summer although I'll be using an AP 6 paddle centre plate

The std ford clutches you get these days don't seem to be anything like as good as the ones from years ago?

I even tried a 6 paddle centre with a new ford cover and it wasn't upto the torque you get running stage 3
