A quick search shows MU475321 is an OE replacement clutch. I am not seeing any "performance" claims. It is made by a company named "Perfection" though. I am not familiar with that company.

I'm seeing MU475321 kit as low as $90 at carid.com. I suspect you get what you pay for.

Are you sure that is for a roadster? I don't think it is unless you saw it under SRL311. My 2 cents. If it doesn't fit, it will be a pain to return it to RockAuto. RockAuto is not your friend when it comes to returns. It is fine when you do know it is the right part.

Check with our vendors. Everything from OEM to high performance available and since it’s from our trusted vendors you know it will work. Changing out a clutch is no easy task on these cars (engine must come out) so buy a quality part and be done with it.
