My brother actually did something similar with his WRX, except he ended up with an entirely new transmission.
I guess that as a matter of personal preference I enjoy having a clutch that takes more than the weight of a feather to engage. Even at 202 hp, that engine could make quick work of the stock clutch in the wrong hands/feet.

Pedal effort is one of the issues. Although, I'm not dissatisfied with the transmission by any means, it just seems as if a Jeep should feel a bit stouter in that department.
I'm heading on a road trip with my lady friend, and while I think she's pretty capable of driving standard, she's used to an older BMW where you can actually feel the clutch engagement. Whereas, I've driven barefoot on a few occasions, and I still couldn't discern any sensation through the pedal.
I think this is more individual preference than anything, comparable to how firm/soft someone likes their mattress.
