RPS Clutches?!

So, I saw the deal on RPS clutches in the RX-7 store and since my car needs a clutch and I'm on the poor college student budget I checked them out. $215 for a TII clutch with higher clamping power sounds mighty good to me...but I've never really heard of these guys before. Are they crap like Centerforce or is their quality comparable to ACT?

All these questions and no answers!

I have used RPS clutches in the past and have had great experiences with them, I had one on a FD that made 373RWHP with a regular RPS Turbo Clutch that was out like 3years ago with absolutely no problems, I also used the same pressure plate with a 6 sprung disc(Racing Beat) on a 500+RWHP FD with no problems. This time around I will be purchasing a RPS Clutch with 6 sprung disc for my new FD project, plain and simple they work and for the price the RX7Store is selling them for it's a definate bargain.

I have no experience with them on the FD. But on my friend's MR2, the RPS performed and felt better than ACT.
