Default Clutch and Flywheel Issue

I'm after some advice please for my S2

The standard clutch is slipping like mad when the boost comes, its
a new clutch and has only done about 1500miles, the car has various mods but i'm not sure which clutch to go for i.e. AP....etc etc also while
i'm doing the clutch is it worth getting the flywheel lightened and balanced??

I've got an AP Racing organic centre plate with a 1600lb pressure plate.
Works very well, doesn't slip
isn't horrible to drive like a paddle but will handle the same power.

Oh and do the clutch pedal mod as well to get rid of the ratchet

AP six paddle clutch,Mutch better pedal feel & a little easier on the left leg I tis worth getting the flywheel refaced while your at it. To lighten & balance it properly it would need to be done with the crank for a proper job so just a skim would be nice.
