Best clutch for a S5 Turbo II for 300+ hp

Any recommendations for a S5 Turbo II for 300+ hp? I'm looking at the exedy stage I HD but it requires a counterweight? Anyone installed this clutch? Do you need the counterweight if you keep the stock flywheel?

No clutch needs a counterweight.
the Aftermarket Light flywheel does.
The Stock Flywheel in a manual has the counterweight Built into the flywheel.

Thanks for the info. It was erroneously listed on the site I was purchasing from that it was required but didnt state it was if you use the ZF01 exedy light flywheel. I went ahead and ordered the Exedy Stage 1 HD clutch.

I guess I need to take the stock flywheel off to get machined which looks like a massive pain in the a$$.
