Now after having done that work, I can actually feel the individual parts of the clutch working, before it just felt like pressing down the clutch pedal. Now I can actually feel the release bearing compress the springs which pulls the friction disk off the clutch pucks...I know that sounds weird but I feel like I can diagnose clutch issues just by feel now. Hopefully the turbo install will give me similar insight into how the whole turbo setup actually works, because I still feel a little ignorant when it comes to the whole turbo thing.
I remember the first lutch I did. You are right it makes things "make sense" after doing one.
