clutch question

I am putting an RPS clutch in Saturday, and had a few questions:

1. Take out the restrictor pill?

2. Invest in an SS clutch line?


Also, when would be the best time to do them, probably before would make the most sense

I think most people leave the restrictor pill in, not sure about the clutch line tho.

For people like myself who made the OE clutch last almost 40k miles of "hard driving", the pill should be taken out as removing it provides better "feel" and engagement. People who can control their left foot, will probably have their clutch and drive train parts last a good long time without it.

However, people who's clutch didn't even last 20k should probably leave it in. The restrictor will help save the drive train of those who can't/don't know how to keep from shock loading the drive train, or are more abusive in their habits. Those people could very easily end up paying for a TC or worse if they do remove it.

You decide which person you are, and live with the benifits... or consequences.

Do the ss line, but do not remove the restrictor.
