Ok I need serious help with this thing because it is killing me, so much that I cant even get motivated about driving or having the car. I had to replace my clutch cable and while doing it, I decided to use the Maximum Motorsport quadrant and Firewall adjuster. First thing, yes I used a factory Ford cable.
Ever since doing this shifting has been all messed up. Normal driving conditions no problem. But high RPMs and/or quick and fast shifting, its like Im locked out. First time I called for tech support, MM was awesome. We discussed that some different clutch materials respond to heat and expansion differently and that I might need a little more adjustment on the FWA. He also verified that I did install everything correctly. Awesome. No problem. Put the car away thinking I was done. Took it out yesterday, totally Effed still call back to MM and get a huge dick. I am still so pissed with MM right now...
He tells me that it sounds almost like my pressure plate is not completely releasing - agreed. He then proceeds to tell me how to adjust the FWA. He also tells me Im having issues because I didnt use their cable and for it to work correctly it has to be a completely system. I conform I did this process and that it was correct. Also noting that I had it adjusted out most of the way as it were. His response, 'well these have a massive range of adjustment' to which I respond, I realize that and thats why Im telling you its adjusted out all the way. Then he tells me to do it completely to the max. I confirm that this will pre-load the TOB and ruin it. He says yeah but just do it, anyway it wont destroy it right away. Then he starts telling me the disc is warped and thats my whole problem. So apparently my disc warped, when it was sitting on the rack and I was under the dash.
Basically from those of you who have been using this system and have it working properly I need actual tech help and getting this dialed in. I had zero issues with the stock setup so I can confidently say I dont have a clutch issue. Also I hope MM sees this so they can understand why Im upset and why I didnt appreciate waiting 20 minutes for someone to waste my time and who decided he had a huge attitude problem.
