pssh sound when depressing clutch?

Sometimes I hear i psssh sound when I push my clutch in and sometimes it does not do it at all. It sounds like air leaking from somewhere. Does anyones elses do this. I have asked some of my friends with evos and some say that there does it and some do not. The reason I ask is because I am having trouble with my clutch dragging after my ACT install and SS line even after I adjusted my clutch pedal 100 times trying to get it to feel good. I was considering doing the clutch rod mod but I heard it does not work because of our hydraulic system. I also plan on doind motormounts and shifter bushing and i hope that to help my shifting but I know it will have to affect on my clutch drag....I mean sometimes I cannot get my car into first or reverse....it can take several attemps and then sometime the car nudges when it goes in. Oh and I have blead the system a couple times so I am sure there is no air in there thanks

Have you tried some Kegel exercises? maybe your sphincter cannot hold back the sulphur bombs when you contract your abs, to push in the clutch!











Just kidding, let me go read the rest, then answer. DAMN, I cant read too far down, with a first sentence like that, my bad!

Oh and to add to this at low RPM shifting it feels notchy but at wide open throttle it shifts smooth. I am so frustrated at this right now.

when you changed your clutch, what did you do with the flywheel? Did you change it, resurface it, or leave it alone?
