This is for the FL5 owners, which is why I posted in the FL5 sub-forum. Don't try this if you have an Si unless you want to be a guinea pig like me. Your clutch is different.
Thank you for sharing your data-backed experience in such detail. I read up on this a lot last night and watched your related video, and I think I’ll be the guinea pig with my Integra A-Spec 6MT this weekend, seeing as no one seems to have tried it on their Si or at least posted about it anywhere. I’ll report back for my Si/A-Spec folks and we’ll know once and for all. Worst case I take out the clutch pedal assembly and put it back in… I love tinkering with my car anyway ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I took the helper spring out, knowing that I am taking a risk that I will not be able to easily put it back.

I really like the clutch feel without it.

Coming from FA5, I always felt that the clutch on the FL5 was too mushy and lacking feeling.

I can definitely notice a bit more effort, still seem softer/easier than the FA5, and feels more "natural"
