mazdaperformance.com clutch_kit!? Feedback needed!!!

I am wanting to buy the cheapest clutch I can and the oem 88 turbo clutch kit at mazdaperformance is only
$140!!! I am suspicious of such an incredible price...
VicBritish is cheap and it is $190...
1st thing... They say it is Exedy.. is that the factory clutch? or whats really important is, is it any good? I am going for true stock right now and will be for a couple years.
Lemme make sure I have this straight... OEM= Original Manufacturers Equipment, right?
Lastly, does anyone know where this crazy price can be beat???
Thanx in advance to all!

Stock 10th AE

I'm pretty sure that's an OEM setup. I'm buying mine from there too.

Exedy/Diakin Clutch is one of the largest oem providers for japanse cars in the world. My ACT HD clutch kit came w/ an exedy disc and the ACT pressure plate. ACT sources oem discs from quality manufacturer for the street/strip kits, so if they use exedy in lieu of their own oem disc, you know it must be good.

mazdaformance has one of the best prices for OE parts (aka 'genuine Mazda parts', not your Advance Auto Parts OE replacement special)

i ordered a set of OE brake pads for my 2000 Protege, local dealer wants $89 for a pair, I bought mine from mazdaformance (OE parts, even with mazda japanese packaging!) for $51 shipped, HUGE difference

spend the extra couple of bucks and get a ACT6puck and HD plate. 369 shipped at Hopupracing.com
858-509-0179. I got one along with alot of other stuff.
Great guy to buy from. Fast shipping and no bullshit partial orders after you pay. Like RB, Corksport and most of the other 2nd companies we deal with
