Rps bc2 question
I have and rps bc2 insatlled on my car with a tick clutch master cylinder. The clutch is so hard I hate it. I was told to take the tick MC out because thats whats causing the hard pedal feel. Can anyone using this clutch me how this clutch feels compared to stock?
Im thinking of taking out the tick master cylinder just dont know if the pedal will still be hard. Any input would help. Also if I did change the clutch what is the best one for the money out there. I have 712hp and 646t.

I have the bc3 which has the same cover plate as the bc2 and the peddle is pretty close to stock. I also have the stock hydraulics. I would pull the tick master and see what happens before I changed the clutch.

I also had no issue using stock hydraulics with the RPS BC Triple, very near stock pedal feel.
Many people change to a Tick master cylinder at the suggestion of others, including Tick themselves, and I'm not sure it is necessary in all cases.
I agree with playtoy, swap back to stock to test it, you may find it isn't necessary.

Call RPS and talk with Rob or RJ - they are extremely helpful and surprisingly technical. Typically most higher end products I've dealt with had minimal technical support, but these guys know their product.

Thanks for the input. The only problem is that when I had it installed I put the full line from the tick to the slave so now I was told I have to drop the clutch to change to stock hydralics. So I was just trying to decide if I should stay with this clutch so I didnt have to pay labor again.

A shop that can build hydraulic hoses might be able to get you and adapter or something. Bring them the fittings and see what happens.
