Which clutch to buy?
Im trying to decide if I should buy a borg warner clutch kit or a cheap one from Advanced auto. I can get the borg warner for $122 and the one from advanced for around $90.
Obviously since Im running a V6 I wont be running tons of horsepower through it and I use the car for a daily driver. Im leaning toward the generic one simply for that reason and because of the price.
IS there any great advantage to getting a quality clutch? or are most generic ones just made by name brand companies anyway?

Only thing to watch with the $100 kits is the throw out bearing.
I got a Murray's $100 kit and it worked, has worked great. But the throw out bearing was crap. First one exploded as it was nothing like the stock one. They then gave me a whole new kit and a federal Mogul throw out bearing off the shelf.
