Default Drill Mod Help????

I've read about the drill mod, my question is what does it do in terms of actual pedal feel and engagement of the clutch? I've replaced the clutch master and slave and put a new clutch in, but didnt do the mod. I found out about it afterwards, but if it will help the pedal feel, I'll dive back in and do it.
Thanks.

Honestly,
It really doesnt do anything to pedal feel in my opinion. It just helps so the master cylinder gets more fluid. It runs healthier I guess.

It allows the fluid to pass through the line faster. There is a restriction in the line that keeps it from moving as fast as it could. The restriction is suppose to be for smoother engagment, but it winds up hindering high rpm shifting, and doesn't let the clutch grab as hard as it could when you release the clutch.

just get a spec clutch, ever since then my pedal has had a very soft, non leg straining feel to it.

I was worried that it would take away the heavy cluch and make the pedal lighter...not what I want. if the pedal feel is unaffected consider it done
