[4drsleeper]

I'm so excited...I'm having my HFC's and UR pulley installed today. I can't wait to pick it up. I'll give feedback tomorrow and what I think.

Well, it's done. I've put about 50 miles on the car with the new cats and pulley. I can't really tell a difference in power at WOT, but I can definitely tell a difference when I'm start from a dead stop at normal throttle. Also a big difference when giving a little extra gas to pass cars in city traffic. I know the car will take a little time to realize full gains from the pulley (200 miles or so), but so far I'm pretty happy with everything. The exhaust sounds like stock at idle and low RPM's but is a bit louder at WOT. As soon as I reach 7000 miles I'll change my engine oil to synthetic and the differential to royal purple but I think that's it for mods. I'm still waiting for my first kill...I only put about 800 miles a month on the car and most of that is 2 lane back roads so I don't get much of a chance to race.

Keep us informed of how you like the results as your ECU adjusts.

Sitting on about 250 miles now. Car has much more pep than before the cats and pulley. Last night I turned of the VDC, I was trying to pull out in traffic so a guy waves me out...when I get into the lane I give it a quick punch and kick it sideways. I was suprised at how easy it was to kick sideways, the RPM's climbed in a flash. I literally pushed it to the floor and instantly let go...only took 1 second to hit redline. The only problem I'm having is 2nd gear seems to be extremely short in normal driving. I bet I don't stay in 2nd gear 2 seconds before shifting to 3rd under normal acceleration. Hopefully that will adjust over time.The exhaust sounds great in the morning when I crank her up...just the right amount of rumble. It's just a little bit louder than it was with stock cats. Sounds great in a tunnel at WOT.
