Need Clutch ideas for my R56 mini cooper S

So my clutch is starting to go out and I have to start thinking about getting a new one. I'd like to get something more geared towards performance as I plan on modifing my Mini. It's 2009 with only 77k miles. Any suggestions would be appreciated as I know nothing about clutches and fly wheels. I want performance but nothing excessive. Everything else on her is stock. But I plan to upgrade.

What do you plan to do, upgrades wise? You could go with a Spec Stage 1 kit: http://www.pelicanparts.com/catalog/..._pg1.htm#item1. It is able to hold 257 ft/lb torque. I'm currently running a Competition Clutch and love it. Primarily due to that it feels pretty much stock, but is rated to hold much higher hp/tq numbers.
