Anyone heard of LUK Gold Series Clutch?

I'm thinking about getting one. Supposedly 40% better than stock. Something like $150 bucks. Not bad it seems... Anyone ever use one?

Website says:
Pre-assembled. Perfectly balanced. Ready to Rock and Roll.
LuK RepSet PRO GOLD PERFORMANCE clutch sets put the muscle back in the quintessential American muscle car. Engineered from the ground up to provide higher clamp load and increased torque capacity without sacrificing clutch service life, PRO GOLD is designed to take the heat. The disc assembly features premium-quality, high friction coefficient facings, wrapped around the industry's toughest torsion damper. And, for that extra power shot, LuK engineers stacked everything on a lightweight, aluminum flywheel. Less rotating mass translates directly to more useable horsepower and faster acceleration. Less weight means less stress on your engine's main bearings, for longer engine life.
Like all LuK RepSets, it's 100% functionally tested, factory balanced and ready to plug-and-play. Each kit includes an aluminum performance flywheel, premium-quality LuK PRO GOLD PERFORMANCE clutch and disc assembly, release bearing, pilot bearing and alignment tool. Confidence. Convenience. Attitude. It's all inside the LuK box.

LuK RepSet PRO GOLD PERFORMANCE.
Drive Hard. Longer.

I have to agree, I have seen many Diesel Trucks with over 400HP at the tires and they are running LUK clutches or you could go with South Bend Clutch. Damn good products. SBC has an import brand called DXD. Both companies have been around for a long time and build a solid clutch

Thats about equivalent to the cost of an OEM. ACT and Centerforce, for example, seem to start at 200
