You leave the spring out.
I suggest putting a dab of blue loc tite on the two bolts that hold the cylinder to clutch pedal bracket.

If you run into any problem, feel free to give me a pm.

Thanks,thats what I thought,I went ahead and finished the install and tried everything without the spring,it all works good,feels different but now my car doesn't creep when I put it in gear and reverse is easy to get again,I did do the blue loctite also.

Just to clear up any future confusion: our kit requires that you remove the spring and leave it out.
