Default Hydraulic clutch

Has any one considered putting a Hydraulic clutch in their Mustang. Would it be worth it?
Just wondering, thought that maybe it would make it easier to drive on a daily basis with a stage 2 or 3 clutch.

Hydraulic does not make a pedal lighter. It's basic leverage. A smaller quadrant would make a the pedal pressure lighter. A smaller master cylinder OR larger slave cylinder would do just the same.

The biggest problem with cables is the eventually wear into the sheathing and increase pedal pressure from friction.
