And do you have manual or auto?

You won't notice any difference initially. Once you start though you will feel it pulling harder and harder as you go faster and faster. You feel like you have more power for a longer period of time as you go through the gears before running out of gear and having to shift.

I love it. It sounds better and is a lot faster. I've driven both and my manual Stage II is a lot more fun. Now if I could just get it started :what_the:

It just won't start when cold. I've been traveling and haven't had time to work on it.

Check your thermotime switch connections on the waterpump. That triggers the cold start valve.

Also if your fuel system/control pressure is out of spec you'll have rough cold starts.

In an automatic...the difference is night and day. No regrets.

You may need to have a DMCFL Tech day where we all come over and get your car going for the carshow!
