How are you liking that set-up? Do you notice an improvement in power to the wheels? Also are you getting any of that cement mixer sound some have talked about?

I wasnt sure about the set up at first during the break in period. The cement mixer sound was really bad for me at first, but i was used to driving at low rpms. Now that i've adjusted my driving style to keep the revs over 2k rpm most of the time i hardly ever hear it. It seems now that i've got a few hundred miles on the clutch the noise itself has died down a lot. I've only had the opportunity to get on it a few times, but i definetly notice a difference in acceleration. Cant wait to get out to the drag strip and see if it really made a difference. Like many others have said, this is the way the car should have been set up out of the factory. Downshifts are so quick and smooth now, and it is very easy to drive. It took me all of 10 minutes of driving to get used to it and i didnt stall it once.
