From talking to Honda Tech's at my dealer every time they replace mine, it isn't something they seem to favor lol.

So what I'm trying to say is it doesn't sound like the easiest job.

Goddamnit. omni's website said "guaranteed delivery by Friday. They didn't ship it till yesterday afternoon and i ordered it wednesday morning at like 7:30.

Had they shipped it out on wednesday... we'd be golden.

so much for guaranteed. Now i have ot wait all the ******* way until next weekend to install it...

i dont htink you need to drop the sub frame i think it will make it much easier. its not that hard to drop the sub frame anyway. Id bet there are instructions on how to do it in one of the header diys

The clutch master cylinder is basically directly under the throttle body, and it will require you to take of your intake. The bolts to take off the master cylinder are also facing up wards, so you do not need to go under the car. But make sure to bleed to the system after the install..

I got a local tuner shop to install my Omni yesterday. Cost me about $400, 5 hours labor. The clutch is so stiff now! And I think my transmission problems are finally solved..it feels like the clutch fully disengages now. You can definitely feel the the difference the bigger piston makes.

kt411gcn thanks for the update on how it feels.

That is good that it fully disengages now. I haven't felt mine do that for a while now. It's really ****** up my transmission too

Because of how it works it magnifies the pressure and it makes everything shorter. Let me tell you, I can't even describe how stiff the clutch pedal is, it lifts me out of the seat when I try to put the pedal to the floor.
Random impression of this omni power from clubrsx.

He only recommends the omni power for the stage 2 and 4 competition clutches.
