Personally I like the longer clutch travel. Feels easier to drive for me. Drove a veloster and a wrx and the clutch is super short felt weird. Probably just used to the long Vw travel though maybe
Always a complaint on Vw is the clutch travel agreed. Glad you got the car started with the stop fully extended as some people can’t start the car so they take a washer off
Just ordered one for my mk7 R. Website says it doesn’t fit but I highly doubt the hole is a different size than the gti. Thanks for the recommendation!
Sounds good man! Should be the same fit as the pedal assembly isn’t different etc. def makes the car feel much better and shifting and clutch feel greatly improves!
@@DArias Yes. You would think getting rid of that extra pedal movement dead zone would be fine to do, but I honestly think it’s not a good idea for this platform specifically because the clutches for this car are just not designed very well. It probably has to do with the VW designing the clutch TOB and slave to be a one-piece design. Just a dumb design IMO because it just creates the part to fail more than often. So the design of the clutch isn’t that great from the start, and I think getting rid of that extra clutch pedal travel (putting the aftermarket clutch stop in there) puts more stress on the TOB/slave, hence making it fail sooner than later. I’ve had two aftermarket clutches fail, and both of them were used with this clutch pedal part. I’m now on a SB STG3 Endurance clutch kit, and I took the clutch stop part off, and I’ve had zero issues, and I drive my car in the city a lot. When I was using the clutch stop, one clutch failed at 40k miles, and the other within 10k miles.
Once you remove the delay valve you are going to enjoy the feel overall. It absolutely makes the car feel so much better
So far I do like it. Car feels a lot easier to drive

Good mod and super cheap. Really changes the feel of the car
So far it really feels good. Clutch catches quickly and more comfortable with the shortened travel
Good and easy mod that everyone should do
Agreed!

Did you order the BMS unit? Did it fit? Diego mentioned he got his on eBay?
@@yuaus I did. I had to cut the plastic insertion it in half but it fits snug. Lmk if you got more questions.
@@evanhasson6032did you still have to remove washers after cutting it
Cheap easy and you can’t beat this
you have any TOB issues or anything weird happen installation?
I don’t recommend this product. You just might find your clutch’s TOB/slave failing earlier than expected. Ask me how I know…
Really?? You went back to the stock stop?
