However, I'm concerned with the sudden excess or increase in blow black. Also, I basically have to burn out every time I launch because it grabs instantly. She "barks" when I shift up and the traction control comes on more often also. Any thoughts/opinions welcome!

Get the rjm clutch peddle. Heard nothing but good about it. Gives you a bigger engagement window as well as an adjustment to your liking.

Has anyone received an email from nhtsa following up on your complaint filed on their web site? I happened to find this in my junk box today.

They're looking for additional documentation to add to the claim but I don't have any to submit. I didn't take the car to the dealer and just refilled the flush in my driveway. How should I respond guys? I already provided the details in the claim, not sure if there's anything I can add to it.

I'm still OEM clutch but i got the rjm pedal because of how awful the OEM pedal is. 1000% improvement! You'll be able to adjust your engagement hight and have better modulation
