Default Cossy Clutch & Exhaust Advice Please!

Hey, my 3door Cossy is currently running approx 360 - 400 bhp at a guess, i've just got back from the Lake district and think i've fucked the clutch up a bit in a traffic jam on a steep hill, the biting point is now really high.
The clutch i have now is an AP 6 paddle with lightweight cover, is that the best clutch given the power i'm running ? I see at Woodford garage theres 2 or 3 other clutches listed, one with organic plate, am i better off with Stg 3 ?

Also i'm on the hunt for a stainless exhaust too, what diameter pipe is best for 400bhp spec ? Also every one seems to have a Mongoose or Scorpion, if i fancied something different what options are there ? Are Magnex recommended ? Or a custom made jobby from Powerflow etc...?

I'm more concerned with getting the diameter right for the job though....
Cheers in advance for your advice!

I was running a alcon 6 paddle clutch in my cossie, no problems at all.

As for exhaust dont goto powerflow as they are shit!!!!, if your after a custom one goto hayward and scott
Im sure thats what there called, pokie and a few others have used them, top quality aswell.
