I just had my clutch and flywheel replaced. all the options were crazy to go through. Dealership wanted $3000+ to replace. I called several shops that wanted about that much until I found a a couple that would do it for the $1600 range. I stuck with the DMF. Went with a Luk DMF123 and a Luk clutch 02-057 which I bought for about $600 and found a shop that put them in. I haven't driven it much since because I have another problem with my brakes but I think the clutch is fine. Before I found this option and I was at the $3000 range, I found performance clutches that were in the $1800-$2100 range installed. My concern with the SMF was putting stress on other items and it is a daily driver not driven for sport so I stayed stock. I'm not planning on moding it out. If you do plan to mod it out, I would suggest the SMF (performance) because they hold more torque than other. Not sure about the advantage of SMF for a stock situation. my 0.02. Tough call. Took tons of time and research on my part.
