I just bought this kit,the seller said it comes with 2000 rpm clutch springs installed what's that mean? Will it engage at 2000? Cause my stock set up engages at 2300 or so, Attachments:

Performance clutches don't do all that much, other than the performance clutch bell which helps with cooling, and lighter clutch itself with stickier shoes. The clutch is integral to your scooter, performance clutches don't do much more than the stock clutch. I could be wrong, but that's what I keep hearing.
The rpms of the springs engage at their rated rpm ABOVE your stock rpm. If your stock rpm was 2300, 2k springs should theoretically bring it to 4300. Etc.

Cause I'm very wealthy and can afford to order things just for fun ,Joking,can I use my stock torque spring with it? Yeah I prob should have researched it more 4300 seems high for daily use,my stock clutch shoes are worn out,I figured why not spend a little more and get aftermarket.any one else have that set up? How's it work?

2000 is too much for a 2 stroke go with something in the 1000-1500 range.

Your taling about the CONTRA SPRING thats right, so what does that tell you!! You need a lot of RPMS to get the Clutch Pulley to open up and pull the belt down for higher speeds, also a lot of wear on the belt and a lot of heat.
Stronger Clutch springs just require more RPMS to have the pads to be thrown out and grab the bell.
I like the softest CONTRA SPRING and Stock springs in the Clutch I like to move at around 2300 rpms. Alleyoop
