LOOOOOOVE it, worth every penny... The engine is soooo much more smooth, since I have an auto I was plauged by an rough idle, and that is all but gone now. I have seen a marked improvement in mpg too. Usually if I spend a day with a led foot, I get about 18-19 mpg, and 21-22 if I am in heavy stop and go but no led foot. In the last week, that number has gone to 21-22 for mashing it off every light and 24ish for heavy stop go traiffic. I have not had the opportunity for any kind of long distance driving (nothing longer than my 10 mile commute to work) so I will have to see for that.
Also the POWER! I know i have the pokey 170bhp, lpt. but when I can beat a mazda speed3 off the line and be a car lengh ahead of him before we are though an intersection, that is pretty good. I went head to head against one today, and they are none too slow either (0-60 in under 6 seconds) and at the first light, got ahead of him by the time I hit the legal limit (and then some) but then at the next light, I turned off the acc (always a power killer) and ground his butt, and was a full car length ahead of him through the intersection, and yes he was racing, very much so, infact he was trying even harder at the second light because the girl in his passenger seat was making faces at him.
I need to dyno test my car, but will wait until my new exuast comes in, cuz that will change the numbers a bit.
