Default Focus ST MK2 - RS clutch difference

Evening all,

My 2007 Focus ST MK2 is currently having an RS clutch installed that I bought on eBay... My mechanic tells me that the clutch is identical, to the point that the part numbers on the casing are the same. I am just wondering if the ST and RS clutch/ flywheels look identical. It wouldn't surprise me if the housing for it all is the same and uses the same part numbers and the friction plates etc are higher rated? Just wondering if anyone has any experience/ advice....

FYI I'm having the RS clutch put in because dreamscience remap is causing the standard clutch to slip...

Thanks!

Only the pressure plate is different, the clutch disc is the same.
