^ and you can experience a similar feeling with this kit, just drive at 20% throttle and then stamp on the gas at 4 or 5 thousand rpm. It'll be slower though.

Think of a plane taking off, doesn't feel fast (compared to.a car with moderate-large turbo) because the acceleration of the plane is smooth, the rate of acceleration never surges. Yet although it doesn't feel fast, it would easily out drag most turbo cars that feel faster, as they have high rates of acceleration change. You can obviously see these types of cars on their dyno sheets, nothing nothing nothing POWER. I'd rather just power power power power. Seeing as I drive 95% of the time in the first two powers Lol
