Default Got Loaded.......

Powerloaded, that is. Man, this has been the toughest 5 weeks waiting I've had in a long time, but it was worth the wait. Seems like a different car. Shifts are firmer, and where they SHOULD have been all along. More low end, just all around better. Can't vouch for anything but the A4, but if you have the A4, you just gotta get it. Thanks Richard, at Exit28 Motorsports.
