soft pedal after shifting hard
i have a spec 2 and i've done the drill mod. everytime i really drive my car hard, my pedal seems to soften up afterwards. after driving a little while longer, the pedal gets back to normal again, but i'm just wondering if the loose pedal feel is normal? thanks.

Actually, there might be something you can do about it. I know I've seen this on the board by one other person, and I've done it myself with pretty good results. Try wrapping the hydraulic line that goes from the master cylinder to the slave cylinder with something. I used about a foot long of 3/8" ID heater hose (cut in half the long way) and a couple of zip ties to insulate the line. Also make sure the line is far away from your header. This should help out a little.
