clutch master cylinder

Alright, I have a few questions I've heard that it is good to replace the clutch master cylinder for an after market, so I did replaced my cluth to an act hd pressure plate with a new stock flywheel and at the beggining I noticed that the clutch was engaging at the bottom but after a week or so It started to engage on the very top (almost at the end) and I'm having a hard time on up hills and first. I did purchased the map oem clutch master cylinder but im wondering if that would solve the problem or if theres anything else i could do ?
Thank you

Pill? Delay valve ?

If you're referring to that I haven't done so, would that be the cause? And how ?
Appreciate your time thanks

removing the the clutch pill makes tge feeling way better and if you change your clutch master cylinder to the evo8/9 or aftermarket, your cluctch pedal will be adjustable and softer on the pedal. o

The recall replaces the old plastic with a new updated plastic. Can't go wrong with the CMC upgrade from AMS, MAP or Magnus. When given the option please get the OEM EVO 9 CMC. Don't opt for the aftermarket. You get what you pay for. Do it right the first time.

I can vouch for that. Went through 3 aftermarket CMC's before I decided to go for the OEM Evo IX one.
