I have yet to meet a single person who didn't like it better with the pill gone; even the biggest of the ultra whiny bitch boys! I don't care how many miles you have on your car, removing it does nothing but improve the feel and lengthen clutch life.

Oh yeah, and get a MBC.

LOL wow! Can I touch my balls while you work on my car?

I do agree though; zero negative effects. Worse case scenario, we just put the pill back in for you, but I've NEVER heard of anyone wanting to do that. I really don't understand why so many X guys are afraid of this, it was the same thing with the 8/9 guys...but not quite as bad since so many were previous DSMers. My stock IX clutch actually started slipping during hard downshifts so that's when I removed the pill; I then put another 15k miles (including autocross) on the clutch without it slipping even a single time.

I just see it as completely the package you've already started. You gave your hand all the niceties with your shifter and bushings, why not get your foot a little love too? If the car were bone stock I'd see it otherwise, but for an already modded car that you've spent thousands on, why stop and skip the easy/cheap stuff that frankly will give you a more noticeable benefit on a daily basis than your $730 intercooler?

Well being one of those guys that is reluctant to do it, I think you pretty much have your answer in what I said above. I don't see a problem with it as it is. It sounds like this is one of those life lessons you'll learn once it happens to you with a big fat "I told you so!" at the end of the story, lol.

It could also be a few other things, such as "Well Mitsu must have put it there for a reason" or "I don't understand how the whole thing works, so if it's not broken, don't fix it". I think I fall in the latter of those 2 statements. :(

It's not something you feel until after you've done it. It really does make a world of difference.

I'm going to second the "quit being a goddamn fucking woman" bit. Just do it.

I now apply both those statements to your stock intercooler, shifter, bushings, etc. :)

Oooooh, very good point! I'll have to think about how to respond to that. Perhaps we can get to the bottom of why guys are reluctant to remove it.

He was referring to my 2 statements in quotes in my previous post.

Well fuck, we can do them together then... just, really really far away.
