I haven't replaced it yet - it won't get installed until Saturday. As for why its better:
Torque Capacity Increase: 69%
Horsepower Rating: 300 HP at the crank / Torque Capacity: 298 ft / lbs
It will hold more than the OEM when I boost this wreck. I don't want the clutch slipping on me when the HP and torque are pert near doubled from stock..

Don't know, don't know, don't know, don't know - its not installed yet.
My Civic has about 34K on the dial right now. The clutch doesn't need to be replaced yet. I want to replace it. That and the lighter flywheel. Yes I know all about the positive and negative effects of a lighter flywheel - which is why I went with an 11 pound version and not the 7 pound ones out there.
