Default ACT clutch on boost

Scenario: put in a act xtreme clutch kit with a new flywheel & axles from honda. installed everything, bled it til the fluid was clear, turned it on and the pedal feels like its grabbing real close to the firewall. after breaking it in for 500 miles, turned up the boost and the odd part is that when the boost builds and i do a readline pull, it feels as if the clutch pedal is sucking itself back in. ive cehcked around the pedal area for any signs of fluid leakage but none. im wondering should i adjust the clutch pedal to extend its travel so it grabs more up top or is the slave cylinder going bad? TIA

nope, i dont see any leaks around the slave cyl. i also tried bleeding it by hand instead of using a pump and same issue. no air comes out so i know its bled well.

After a while the act clutch loses some of its resistance on the pedal, mine did the same thing after the breake in period. I figured its due to the springs losing a bit of tension after wearing in. been the same ever since still more effort then stock tho.
