yin, under hard acceleration its a vast improvement, yes esp can flick on but it just sorts itself out, its an ideal compromise for me given cars usage, drove the car stock last week and lack of power was offset by how well it behaved, SteveP has been in it and Deacon from here, unfortunately the benefits are lost on most roc owners who just want an awsome car  :wink:



cheers mate :happy2:

Fantastic! I bet you are absolutely loving it! It's the side mounts that deliver the glorious Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!. You also get to enjoy other engine bay soundz.
