Default Clutch Delay and Supercharging

I've searched for issues related to the clutch delay valve installed in late 03+ slave cylinders. It seems due to the delay, the clutch slips, especially in high rpm shifts. I'll have my competch installed really soon, and concerned that any "spirited" drive and shifting will cause premature wear on my clutch.

What are people's impression? Who's kept the CDV and is supercharged/FI'd with no issues?

In spirited driving I can see how the clutch delay could over heat and wear your clutch pretty quickly but then you have to keep in mind that it was put there to protect your drivetrain. Without it it won't be the clutch that takes the strain and diffs are expensive.

I guess it depends how you drive (but then buying an S2000 and supercharging it kind of puts you in a similar pidgeon hole to me).

The clutch delay removal is pretty straightforward. You could do it yourslef or have a mechanic do it for a few bucks.
