From the factory, Subaru has included a delay valve in the slave cylinder on all manual Subaru performance models since 2006. This valve is great for those who are new to driving a manual transmission as it adds a layer of forgiveness if you let the clutch pedal out too quickly, however, the valve also blurs the engagement point of the clutch which makes it frustrating and unpredictable to get going from a stop.
Thankfully, getting rid of the factory delay valve is extremely straight forward, only taking 30 minutes or so. Replacing the valve assembly and spring with an OVERTAKE Subaru Clutch Delay Valve Delete makes for consistent and predictable clutch engagement. This increased control gives your left foot 1:1 control over the clutch, connecting you directly to the way that your drivetrain handles, greatly improving the driving experience.
This more direct clutch control also comes with another benefit - longer clutch life. The factory delay valve essentially allows the clutch to slip more than is necessary, which causes excessive clutch wear and premature failure. Now you will be in full control of the amount of slip that your clutch sees.
