What else to replace while installing exedy twin?

Hey guys, so im going to be installing a exedy twin in a couple weeks and was wondering what else i should do while i have it apart? Im looking at the clutch fork stop, a braided steel clutch line, and a new oem throwout bearing. Do these all sound like a good idea? And i have heard of some Clutch master cylinder CMC failures with the exedy twin but i think that is only with the evo x right? I dont see any cmc upgrades for the evo 8. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks

All of those things on your list are a great idea. The stop, line, and oem TOB should be mandatory.

Not that I've heard of just running a standard pull type clutch. Maybe with some of the push style conversion TOB assys though, I think it was too small for them.

You should be golden with the list you have there.

I recently did the same job and have not heard of any CMC failures due to the Exedy Twin...I went with the following parts...

Exedy Twin HD
OEM Throw Out Bearing
STM Clutch Fork Stop
AMS Upper SS Clutch Line

Also go ahead and replace your rear main seal, since your already there especiallly if you have high mileage.
