This clutch also seems very light. Even a little bit of riding or a crappy start and you will smell it.
Am I doing something stupid? or does the Boxer just idle very low? I also found the throttle is not very sensitive for the first .5" or so of travel making it easy to over rev.

Theres not a whole lot of torque, so you have to give it more gas to get going. In my CL I practically let the clutch out half way before giving it gas and the car likes it. In the FR-S I need to rev up to ~1-1.2k rpms for a smooth engagement. My CL makes more then twice the torque of this car though.
