So, my truck has ~80k miles. I have used it offroad quite a bit. I have an OTT Spicy tune, and a Marlin TacoBox.
First, i am wondering if the clutch accumulator delete will help with better engagement. I am a pretty good manual driver and familiar with heal and toe/rev matching for clean downshifts. Hard to do in this truck. The tune helped with the delay in accelerator pedal response, but the clutch has a noticeable spot of no-feel when shifting, especially when the shift needs to be kinda quick. Starting from a stop with quick acceleration is also wonky since the engine revs quickly, but the clutch engagement cannot be matched accurately with the delay that I attribute to the accumulator.
Additionally, since the engine revs more responsively, I find myself wishing for a shorter shifter throw. I have seen offerings from B&M and Core (Hurst?). I am curious about folks experience with any of this.
