Default Decision on Clutch HELP

Need help choosing a clutch.
Car 20k mile 03 z06 Stock. Getting my hands on a rebuilt v2 a&a kit. Goal mid 550rwhp conservative for now.LOL
Ordered a few days ago c6Z output shafts and clutches ect.
Been reading a ton!!!!
What i am set on is McLeod Rst. Two different suppliers recommend the RXT said would be work the extra $ to do it right the first time. I dont want to have to pull the drivetrain again for a while.
Would love some honnest opinion of real life stories. No my neighbor stories.
Thanks for your help.
Forgot to add. The car is my garage queen with drag radials. Ridden hard few times a week. With some drag strip passes every few months

I agree, if you are getting serious about adding power I would overdo the clutch now so you don't have to go back and do it again later if you want to add another 100-200hp... personally I use an act twin (t2s-g01) and it has been great so far... the rxt and mantic twin seem to get nothing but good reviews so those 2 would be on my radar as well

I'm 600rw running a RST, I've no plans to run drag radials.That was my deciding factor RST vs RXT.

The clutch works exactly as advertised, first time.
