I had The VLSD and new 5th gen clutch installed by maximum tuning in NY. I had 240miles to break it in on the trip back to Mass. I just gave her a little in a couple corners around my house and i have to say OMG this combo is unreal. The car feels so much more stable in corners and the clutch is light pedal yet bites very well. If any of you 5 speed guys are due for a transmission and clutch you know what to do.

Edit: car also feels much better in the wet.

Just a little FYI, highway miles shouldnt be considered as "break in" miles.
