First drive:
wow-- this is loud! It's got a nice burbley rumble sound to it, especially
on decelleration or wind down from revving.
It looks great too...
Ok, performance: the low-end early revs don't have the same punch anymore.
Rick warned of that-- a stock engine with this kit doesn't have the airflow
and backpressure that gave the car some early zippiness in the acceleration
cycle. But it definitely has some more get up once it gets going. I'd say
over 2500 rpm's and you are back in the groove but I wasn't watching the
tach too close.
Good thing it was a fourtyish mile drive home! I had fun. Didn't want to get
off 59 onto the slow-moving perpetually backed up i45 so I kept going and
took another highway south and jogged over on the beltway.
It felt great! Worth saving all summer for.
I love those guys. I just peppered the experienced Steve, Warren, Bill as
well as the new guys Rick and Curtis with questions about this and that. I
think Steve solved my hard-to-start issue by just talking and listening to
it, but I'll know more tomorrow because I'm definitely driving this bad boy,
and then I'll post the solution for posterity.
Great customer support, as always.
