Well, the car isnt registered yet so i took it for only a short ride down my street.
Couldnt belive how quick the turbo spooled up compared to my 5sfte. I have a new clutch also and im breaking that in, its so much stiffer than my last. I'm falling in love with my car all over again lol. 1st gear is realllly short with the old 5s tranny 2nd just spins, awesome. I can put it on the road as soon as i have money for new tires. the 5sfte was fun but man. this is a totally different motor.   gunna represent with EC next meet in virginia

Its funny how everyone who gets the swap done has the same surprised experience. Congrats.
