i dunno how to read the euro money (pounds right?) but if youve got money floating around doing nothing or if its cheap enough to you, then go ahead try it.

integgy only makes aluminum in 6061, which is really soft, that is 7075, which is really strong.

I bought a 2 shoe clutch here about 2 weeks ago it's made from the 7075 alum. with tiny springs instead of the around the clutch spring. A guy here locally makes them as well as other revo alum parts., I bought the shoes and 3 sets of springs (variable tensions) for $25. I'm never going back to the stock shoes again. Alum is awesome. it engages faster, and better than the stockies. I'll have to get you the website so you can check them out. I'd stay clear of integy i've heard bad things about their shoes. The guy I bought mine from actually supplies them to the national racers from my track. and they swear by these clutch shoes.

generally you want the clutch to engage later so the engine gains more rpm, so is making more power when the clutch engages, not the other way around, engaging to early bogs the engine down and gives you a slower take off.

not if you have an engine that makes more power at lower RPM's, if it gets in to the upper RPM range it will make less power and take off slower.

I still stand by the good ol' MIP clutch kit. Under 15 bucks and works like a champ with two different settings.
