Worth upgrading the secondary clutch?

Thinking about doing a secondary clutch upgrade on my Polaris Sportsman, it's a 2018 570 EPS, I've done some light mods already, but I'm still not totally happy with how it backshifts under load especially when pulling or climbing, but I heard an upgraded secondary can make a big difference in responsiveness and belt life, but wanted to see what others thought first.
If you've upgraded yours, did you notice any real improvement? and which setup are you running...OEM style or aftermarket?
Appreciate any ideas
 
Ok I did a clutch kit on my brother's Ranger (I didn't wanna do it yet on mine) and the backshifting definitely felt smoother under load. If you're already noticing lag on pulls, an aftermarket secondary will probably give you the snap you're looking for. I'm telling myself that as well LOL.
