I am looking to change timing belt on my 2009 Mitsubishi Galant ES 2.4. Since gates water pump had bad reviews, I am thinking about getting

this kit. Anyone used similar kit before?
I am planning to keep car for 2-4 more years. Only issue I have with OEM parts is I will have to buy parts myself and will lead to liability issues since I bought my own parts. I went to dealer for quote he said around 700-1000 just for belt and water pump change, no pulley or tensioner, he said cost will depend on quality of parts he uses. I was like what quality, there should be OEM parts, but since I was overwhelmed with price I just left.
Because of bad reviews of water pump on gates I am not getting gates.

Other things I am planning to get replaced
Irradium TT spark plugs (IKH20TT)
thermostat Stant OEM exact
timing cover gasket
camshaft and crankshaft seals
