2.3/2.5 duratec clutch strength VS 250-300HP

Hey fellow Ranger owners, I’m currently swapping a 2.5l duratec engine into my 2006 Ranger. I have an ultimate goal to eventually install a turbo and run a HP goal of 250-300 range, maybe more on the conservative side.My big question here is or what I’m having difficulty sourcing is a clutch that will withstand this power. Will an OEM exedy clutch handle this? It seems I can only find off brand eBay and Amazon “stage 1-3” clutch’s that are sure to be garbage. And exedy doesn’t even offer anything other than stock for this engine. Is it possible to use Mazda speed3 clutch parts? Or ford focus ST clutch? Also short question, will the transmission and rear axle handle this HP load? Thanks
