Agency Power SS clutch line review

So I got the AP clutch line and have been waiting to install it since xmas, so i finally did this last week end. il post some pics up tomorrow.

At first i thought it was just supposed to go from the hard line to the rubber hose, but after researching, i found out it actually replaces the rubber hose. Because of this, you have to bend the hard line regardless to get it to feed into the SS line.

SO my overall recommendation would be, if you don't wana spend $40 on a clutch line, simply toss out that pos clutch dampener, and CAREFULLY bend the hard line until you can get it to feed into the rubber hose. you're also going to need a bottle of brake/clutch fluid in order to do this as you need to bleed the clutch after it is installed.

i personally used dot 3/4 valvoline synthetic brake fluid. from what ive read from everyone else who has done this dampener removal, its supposed to make your clutch pedal feel stiffer and give you more clutch feel. however, with my line, my clutch pedal is actually softer, but it has a much smoother feel to it now, and feels like it engages the clutch smoother.

i don't know how it would have felt if i just used the rubber hose, so i cant comment on that. my overall impression of the product thus far is, it is mainly for aesthetic reasons and MAYBE for more durability compared to the rubber line, but its not worth the money just for those reasons alone.

i hope this review helps someone, and i apologize if my paragraphs have bad transitions, im just typing as i think things in my head. this was my first review so i hope its not too bad and helps ppl out xD
