No it’s just a spring that makes the clutch pedal a little softer and also helps it return to the very top. Most modern manuals have them these days. A lot of guys remove it to make the pedal stiffer. The spring has a pivot point where it goes from pushing the pedal down to pushing the pedal up. It’s this transition that makes it hard to feel the bite point. So a lot of guys remove the spring. I’ve run my car both ways and really don’t have a problem driving with or without the spring.

Rev hang is a software thing that lets the revs drop just enough for the next gear and then hang there for a sec. Thank god the BRZ doesn’t have this aid.
