They do go ok after a little tickle lol, handling is their thing though. Not much to do to match stock v8 power & those mods usually give you better fuel economy too.

Mine goes alright, & if i want some real extra grunt, the well travelled path to Barra turbo goodness would be my next step.

Tbh atm though, i would rather trick suspension & big brakes first for my vct lol!

cheers, Maka
