PS...don't forget the drive thru car wash (ask for the heavy duty brushes if they have 'em)

Well guys, I'm in freakin heaven!!!

Wicked Weasel and I spent the morning/afternoon tearing up the Jersey Countryside. I can't believe how much power my baby has now. I had to basically relearn how to drive her today. I can no longer just mash the pedal, the wheels spin so easily now with all that HP. I'm gonna have to get stickier tires ASAP.

The guys at ECS did an amazing job. She idles almost the same as she did before, she's got a more deeper sound when you accelerate and she screams at half throttle!! I actually set off two alarms today, one while I was just cruising by!! The Ti's never had enough power to do that!! I love it!!! She's still very easy to live with. There's only a slight "sewing machine" sound from the springs. I was so surprised!!! You have to really listen carefully to hear it. I was expecting alot more. The 224/230 cam was the perfect cam for my baby! She's so docile at idle inside the cabin but when you punch it watch out!!! She can really bite now!!!

I'm gonna do a full review of the cam later on in C5 Tech. I'm gonna go get something to eat. I spent the whole day driving and I just can't get enough!!!

I can't wait till tomorrow.

Again, Thanks Chris, Doug and all the guys at ECS!!!!

You made me a very happy man!!!

We were close. WE came over a hill in Freehold area and I saw the top of a cop car. I slammed on the brakes and he was sitting right on the side of the road. My V1 never went off and when I went by I realized no one was in it because it was parked in front of the LEOs house
