But I guarantee you that your stock Csc will fail again.
The fiberglass insulation is a joke. It only insulates the rubber hose that jumps to the CSC. The metal tube that runs up to the MCS is completely un-shielded. Im sure that the stock CSC will go out again, but seals failing after 6 months? I dunno about that. I had no leaks and I am not rough on it. It has to be heat related. How else can you explain regaining a normal feeling clutch after turning the car off for 10 seconds? Then it deteriorating to the point of 'un-shiftable' after another 60 seconds of driving?

Everyone just needs the Z speed HD CSC..if you keep replacing your failed OEM CSC with another OEM CSC..then shame on you!
I will ask about this when my CSC goes out again. I'm have a 5 year extended warranty that covers this type of failure. I thinking that they will not want to put anything other than stock in or it would void that warranty, blah blah blah... Nevermind that its higher quality and will prevent them having to fix it again in the future.... Warranty Logic.
