A better "grab" will result in more power being put to the gears from the engine with less slip from the clutch. In other words less slip more power and better throttle response, more slip less power and throttle response. I hope this helps you. The pegs on the fly wheel are only pressed in, you should be able to press the ones sticking out more back in, but if they have worked the way out once then chances are they will do it again. On the other hand it just may be an mfg. oversight and they weren't done right in the first place, they are made by humans and we do make mistakes. But that would be your call on how to handle that.
