So, I just finished installing mine, and havent had any driving time yet but heres what I have to say about the install.

Im a left handed person, my right hand is useless. Working under the dash on the left side of the car which means doing every connection, nut, bolt, pin, adjustment etc with my useless right hand was super agravating. I was pouring sweat and couldnt coordinate my fingers properly so it took me a full 2 hrs to do the install.

Not something I want to do any time soon. If I was right handed it would have been done in half the time easily!

Anyways, I should have soom seat time tomorrow so I will report back,I expect all the effort to be well worth it based on all the reviews.

Ok, so I had some seat time now after I completed the install and all the effort with my right hand was worth it. The part is extremely well built and does exactly what they say it does with no negative side effects.

I now have:

-Shorter over all clutch pedal throw
-Smoother clutch engagement without any effort
-Firmer clutch pedal feel

I havent adjusted it yet after the initial setup as per the instructions but it feels good where it is so I am going to leave it there for a while.

Is there a "stock" setting on this clutch.. something like if I don't like it i can set it at the stock setting and it'll act just like the stock clutch pedal?

I have a stock clutch but my shifts are jerky as it seems i can't keep my leg steady while pulling out the clutch and the engagement window is too small for me to try and smooth it out. Would this pedal be recommended in this case?

Bandit_Kaine, yes you can dial the settings right back to stock if you wish by simply turning the fulcrum point adjustment wheel to the right. From the fully stock position (0% Fulcrum Setting) you can then adjust the engagement width as much as you like up to 10 full turns of adjustment wheel to the left for 100% of the available fulcrum adjustment travel.

Increasing from 0% will lower the friction point and widen out the engagement window so you can modulate the pedal much easier for smoother launches and much nicer shifts. Once you've adjusted the engagement width to your liking you can then independantly adjust the friction point to where you're most comfortable as well.
