Here we go, first, my clutch in my 91 Talon TSi AWD started to build up pressure little by little, I kept having to release the pressure from the Slave Clutch Cyl. and it would go back to normal. It would keep the clutch engauged part of the way and it would slip if I didn't. So I figured maybe its the Slave Cyl. building pressure, I replaced that and at first, I thought it worked. I took it out and got her warmed up.

1st gear I was pulling like a rabid monkey.
2nd gear I was pulling even harder, 14psi being maintained, everything is feeling great and I got the tires to break loose.
3rd gear RPMs started shooting up again and I let off because it built so much pressure so fast it was slipping horribly.

But heres another thing, this also happens in my 91 Eclipse GS but all I have to do is wiggle the clutch pedal and it goes back to normal (or doesn't engauge fast enough). But the Talon has such a stiff pedal I cant do that. (It might be totally different problems but I thought I would throw that out)

The Eclipse I've replaced the clutch, flywheel, Slave Cyl., Master cyl., and the transmission (Upgraded to GS-T) so all those parts I know are new(ish) and it still does that in the Eclipse.

I was about to get ready to replace the Master Cyl. in the Talon but I figured I would ask you guys first.

Thanks in advance!

P.S.
The Talon has a new stock clutch, I think a resurfaced flywheel, half assed rebuilt transmission and like I said, a new Slave Cyl.
 
Master cyl probably

it could be only one of a few things, bad clutch (no), slave cyl (no), master cyl (probably), or somone not bleeding the clutch to begin with (oh, god, I hope thats a no).
