Hello.
So after joey installed my cc stage 2 with stock ap1 flywheel, I noticed my clutch pedal is so soft?softer than my old oem clutch, also he did bleed my mc, any idea what could be the problem? Really appreciated for advice...

Mine was like that after I got my clutch/flywheel done. I actually kind of like it myself.

I'm not sure if it's a good thing or a bad thing. My OEM clutch is way stiff, with decent feel when shifting. I've driven an AP1 and another '06 AP2 in which the clutch was much softer than mine. Perhaps a lubed and new clutch is supposed to feel soft.

No but I assume like they said it's because it's new and lubed. I have an Exedy OEM replacement paired up with a F1 chromoly lightweight flywheel, Soft as can be but feels like butter.

There are a few lube points that get dry and give that stiff feel if not properly maintained and serviced.

Two points on the slave cylinder and three points on the fork.
