Default TICK performance master cylinder **installed**

Just wanted to post up and let everyone know that it is an EXTREMELY nice piece and worked awesome .
i'm really happy with it and it's safe to say that it's my first time to power shift like that in high RPM on my 539rwhp T/A

it's really amaizing

Now THIS is what I call a results thread.

Excellent shifting and congratulations on finally being able to drive the car the way it was meant to be driven.

How were you shifting it? With the clutch or with out? Whats Your def of power shifting. I would assume that it would be you keeping the right front planted and pushing the clutch in. Just curious as for im about to install this as well. Thanks,

for me it's mean ... matching the motors rpms with speed of the car and changing the gears in high RPM without lefting the gas pedal using the clutch very quick

Yep thats how its done. I drove a lot of vettes before I got my F-body, I could run through the gears like that all day. The first 5 minutes I had the SS I tried that and I looked like a newb. Scratched the hell out of third and got a nice clutch pedal stuck to the floor I have one ordered, I cant wait to shift like that again

Are you saying he sits up too close when he is driving? I sit ***** to steering wheel when I drive my TA. Most people find this odd, but I find that it helps me become more alert and in better control of the car, plus everything is within comfortable reach.

I can't wait till my Tick MC comes in next week. I just got a brand new Textralia twin disc put in and found that the McLeoud had crapped out. I though I could rebuild it, but it was way too shredded out on the inside. After dong some reserch, I have to say that my advice to everyone is don't go with a McLeoud MC. I haven't personally had one of their clutches before, but their MC is a faulty piece of ****. I hear the Tick is a really solid piece though.

I see, that makes sense.

I looked at your other videos racing the Z06 and Nissan GTR.
That's one mean machine you have there.

What clutch are you running ?
