Generic or Name brand clutch?

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?

that can be a tough question. Some generic name clutches are made by brand name companies where other generic name clutches are rebuild brand name clutches. it is a tough thing to say i would go and find out if it is a freash clutch or a rebuilt one. if its rebuilt i wouldn't use it (thats just me) but being it is a V6 it really shouldn't make much of a differance if youi buy a generic or a brand name. I hope that helps you
