Land, Assuming the bearing is higher quality than OEM it doesn't seem like a fool's assumption to believe there would be some improvement in longevity. As for lugging the engine IMO that should be avoided as good driving practice, I would never wait 15K for oil either no matter what bearing is there. IMO, the real issue is this, if you have a manual transmission will a cheaper bearing last the same amount of time as the clutch disc? If it does, than why not toss a fresh one in with every clutch? In this scenario, only a tiptronic would benefit from a longer life bearing job.
