im thinking that too, would that cause the clutch to feel softer? damnit, i knew i should have listened to you and gone with the carbonetics.

Sounds like you haven't take it to shop yet, have you? What you plan to do bro? i'm sure you don't even have time to take it to local shop or someone.

Found this site from dallas shops list. I have no experience with both of them, but it might be better than take it to local transmission place you think?

Both them are not far from your area so not bad to try.
