APC Upgrade---Quit waiting and do it now!

Hi,
Just thought I would let members know my experience with an APC/Fuel injector upgrade I recently did to my 89 900TC. After 4 or so years of reading about it and drooling at the various products offered by the sponsors, Swedish Dynamics finally sucked me in with their Spring APC/Fuel special. In addition to the ACP and fuel injectors, I also purchased the Magnecor wires. Took less than 1 hour to install everything.
A very noticeable increase in performance. More boost/power though all gear and speed ranges. So much boost I was blowing vacuum lines/pipes for the first while (loose clamps and weak lines). Once I tightened every clamp up and installed my new vacuum lines, everything has been great. After three tankfulls the fuel economy appears to be the same, even though I am pushing the car harder.
SD was great with my few panicky phone calls (vacuum issues).
In short, I'm sorry I sat on the fence for so long. It feels like a new car.
