Default New Clutch problems- need help

I recently bought a new Kevlar metallic racing clutch and i installed it and once i pumped the clutch enough to build pressure and filled the brake resivior to make up for the fluid i lost when i took the transmission out i noticed the clutch still feels stock. i felt my friends racing clutch(same everything) and his felt way different. i was wondering if maybe i had an air bubble in the line? the clutch does have about an inch of play before it is hard. i have driven it about 200 miles and it feels fine but not like a racing clutch. any feed back would be helpful. thanks.

not sure if its a common mustang mod, but does your friend with the stiffer clutch have an aftermarket master cylinder. I got rid of my tick adjustable master because of how much stiffer the pedal got.
