10k mod like or not?

Just like the title says. I just recently did the TC lock mod and was thinking about playing around with the 10k... How many of you like it? and how many of you didnt?

And for those of you who liked it was there a noticable seat of the pants difference?
And how much did you play with the resistance before finding the right one for you?

before the dp tuner I ran two 5.6K resisters in paralle and got quite the differance in throttle response and what felt like a gain in power. it also created a very radical Idle like a cammed up gasser. I liked it but everybody is differant. I felt hardly anything at all from a 10K so I went with more resistence.
edit: one more thing if you keep your foot out of it you will probably see a 2 to 3 mpg increase in milage,I did

alright thanks, i thought i read in a post a while ago and couldnt find it again that somone used a few in series but i wasn't sure.
I love the rough idle of camed up gassers, so maybe the mod would be worth it for that lol. When i get my DP i will want the lope idle tune but i don't have the funding for that.
Off to radio shack i think lol.
