  1. Aha! Now we are getting somewhere: "...In certain positions, this upward pressure on the pedal along with the pivot of the pedal boost spring will make smooth release of the pedal nearly impossible..." I think this describes the crux of the problem which is my primary complaint. Two questions: How do I lower the engagement point of the pedal? Where is the spring...is it on the slave cylinder? Crawl under the dash and have a look. The spring's main purpose it to assit pushing the pedal to the floor and NOT bring it to the top. Easy to remove, but make sure you put a small nail or pin in the end hole provided in the piston so the spring does not pop out when removed. Then drive the car with it removed and you'll get the correct feel for the cutch mechnism. However, try simply reducing the engagement point of the pedel as I descibed above by introducing air into the system. This, by itself, may move the pedal to a point where the spring does not interfere. My pedal, which engaged at the top with the new stage 2 clutch, now engages about half way up. Play with it until you get a comfortable engagement point. You'll be surprised how much smoother your shifting is. Sorry to bring this back from the dead.. Has anyone removed this helper spring and likes the feel more of the clutch pedal?
  2. Is there a DIY for this? I see a few listed but I was wondering if you can drop the stock turbos without moving exhaust and the rear bumper? I have a AWE exhaust so it is much smaller than the stock unit. Thanks,
