RE: SHOULD THESE BE THIS BAD??
the plates were $139, and the tunes were $150, supposed to be for 3 but I only needed 2, so I guess I am owed one in the future?? I will hold my breath.... I'm sure he is a OK guy, but he makes you feel like you are bugging him by having the stones to call for help. If he is the shop mgr, I bet he is loved and adored by his employees. But again, I am very happy w/the final product, so no disrespect in that regard

Hi, finally bit the bullet and installed CMDP's, but my ? is should my stock ones be this gunked up??
PS I never thought you could feel such a difference w/10 hp!! Way better response in 2nd gear and up. But by looking at my stock ones, it seems I was missing air flow!![:'(]

would you say you lost any low-end torque? does it help with the 3rd gear death of power? what other driving impressions do u have? who did the retune?

RE: SHOULD THESE BE THIS BAD??
I would say the only low end difference is right off idle, then NO issues. Seems easier to launch because of it though. Yes it does help 3rd gear, but my issue was any gear below 4000rpms, and it seems to smooth that out. Only had one 20min drive since install, so I cant give anything in depth, but I noticed this more than I did my $600 drive shaft upgrade[>:]
