Subaru WRX/STI Clutch Delay Valve Delete Install — Real In-Car Guide

Real in-car Subaru WRX/STI clutch delay valve delete install on my 2018 STI. This video shows the full STI process: intercooler removal, starter access, slave cylinder removal, factory clutch delay valve removal, PERRIN CDV delete install, clutch bleeding and the final clutch-feel result. This is the in-car install process for the *2006–2014 WRX* and **2006–2021 STI**. On the **2015+ WRX**, the same clutch delay valve delete concept applies, but access is much easier because the slave cylinder setup is different. This install uses the *PERRIN clutch delay valve delete**, but the core information also applies if you are researching the **OVERTAKE clutch delay valve delete* or the factory-valve gut method. ** PARTS, TOOLS & LINKS ** PERRIN Clutch Delay Valve Delete Kit: https://perrin.com/products/clutch-de...
