The first I use competition mode and held it to the floor and let the clutch out aggressive, not side step but let it off about as fast as I could with my foot. About a mile down the road I wanted to try the old fashioned way where you keep revs up to about 2500 and let the clutch out so as not to spin the tires while giving it more gas, slipping the clutch. Anyway the clutch only came up about half way even with my foot off the pedal and slipped the clutch pretty bad. I pumped the clutch a couple times and it came back. I drove it up and down the road it is not slipping. No more of trying that again, but I thought it weird that the clutch only came up about half way. Has anyone experienced this???? Also recommendations for a new clutch capable of 550 RWHP?

As others have said - you boiled the clutch fluid, which introduced air into your system and caused the clutch pedal inconsistency. You're making too much power for the stock clutch for sure.
When you decide to upgrade the clutch, you've got tons of options! We find Monster Clutches to be super high quality with great customer service. Their Level 2 single disc will technically support 550RWHP (that is it's max rating) but you'll be much happier with their LT1-S Twin Disc at your power level:
