Talking VEEERRRROOOOOM!

Got my DP today, and oh my! Huge difference. Its like the pedal got longer and you can get more power out of it! The shifting so much more firm, feels good!

I have to relearn how to use the pedal because the same amount of foot makes it go a lot faster. One problem though, I usually keep my iPhone on the seat next to me and when I put my foot down now my phone goes flying under the fold down console into the back seat!

Kudos to DP Tuner!
