The GF's impression....
I took my GF for a ride in the mustang and she says it feels a lot faster... I suppose that could be true... but she could just not be used to the power since she drives a malibu :-P
Other things i've noticed with this car... Before the intake and tune.. when RPMS would drop low to say 500 rpm or a little less the car would violently shake and shudder and make awful noises when casually taking off from a stop. NOW, there is no drama, no complaints, no noises. It doesn't seem to mind dropping that low in RPM. Also when the tires break loose now... the revs climb incredibly fast, much faster than before. And driving in the rain is kinda scary now lol It doesn't break traction the way it used to, it's not as progressive as before, it's kind of instant plus there is always the worry in the back of my head, will water get in? Hydrolocking = Bad
In other news, Pypes M80 mufflers are going in today :-D
