clutch pressure issue need input

ok for a little while now iv noticed that when I do wot pulls my clutch peddle will get soft, its real easy to push till a little way off the floor, then it gets it stiffness and clutch engages. normally it is stiff and harder to push right off the hop. there is no easy travel at all. anyway after I slow down and drive normal for 2 minutes or so, clutch peddle feels normal again. what could be causing this? got a ky stage 3 clutch.

Clutch is a good clutch. I did research on others with same issue and they thought same thing and that didn't fix it, ended up being master cylinder. I'm not gonna go change my clutch right away when it shows no symptoms of being an actual clutch problem , no slipping or anything when I could be something simpler.

Clutch is not even 2 years old

its either a LUK or SACHS pressure plate that has been dismantled and shimmed to increase pressure. Garbage is a strong word for that practice, but for me, it does not work and I dont use those types of aftermarket modified clutches.

Sachs do a great performance clutch. It may indeed be stronger than the GMPP. Try contacting Sachs performance in Germany.

good luck.
