I have an 06 and noticed the clutch slip just for an instant after an upshift. The clutch and car are brand new! So after some research, I'd guess that the clutch delay valve introduced in MY04 also exists in MY06.

I feel capable enough to remove it, and may soon. But I wonder if it can be easily defeated by only pushing the clutch in far enough to change gears. If I put the clutch on the floor, I get more delay than putting the cluth 2/3 of the way to the floor, right? I will try this today and see if I can chirp second.

How many have taken the time to make this mod? Any horror stories? Will this add any performance? or will it just make it easier to chirp second?

Here's how to do it:

There's also some horror stories if you don't align everything correctly.

Thanks, got it printed up and sitting here on my desk. Any one have a guess on whether my trick will work? And should I wait until after my warenty expires?

do it now...

if you like to Vtec often, like I do by, 10k you will toast the disk

What is it with peoples' infatuation to chirp and/or burn their tires? You cause excessive wear and tear on the car...

I don't agree. Just to go though the gears during brisk acceleration, you will smell the clutch burn without any "chirping" of the tires.

I never drop the clutch, my problem is 8000 and a quick shift, and keep in Vtec it was floating along at 7500.

I agree... just last night I wasn't even VTECing and when I stopped all I smelled was burning clutch.

Also you might want to check out our Quicklutch master cylinder. it allows a much more favorable shifter to clutch pedal travel ratio, in turn reducing shifting time and making shifts more accurate.

Instead of doing the mod to the delay valve just buy an MY03 valve. They are pretty cheap from the dealer about $55.00 or $65.00 I think.

The sooner the better on this mod I waited 7500 miles and my clutch was pretty glazed and slipped some even after changing the valve. (I never launch my car, glazing was caused when upshifting and clutch was slipping)
