- Bragging rights...mean nothing to me.

- I have an eidetic memory. I have a specific timing in my head of how long it takes me to redline 1st and 2nd gear and what points of the powerband feel like what. This is why I was reporting a possible loss around 4-5k rpm range. I noticed a difference RIGHT THERE. A bad one at that, but then, it may have been due to the temperature increase. Time will tell. I need more days behind the wheel, though I've literally driven ALL DAY both days.

- If I was trying to convince myself that I spent the money well, why didn't I do it in the beginning? The answer to that is simply because I wasn't. I was very skeptical and in fact, I still am unsure. My reports yesterday were good but that doesn't mean they're conclusive and I believe I made that clear.

-

I can't drive my car today (tried to...drove home sideways basically) so I cannot report.

Anyhow...I might drive down to D.C. where it is warmer just to drive my car

(family lives there)

I definitely understand the skepticism from you all, however.

Hey, does anyone know if that power v flow intake for the 987 is any good? It looks much smaller than the factory air filter.
