Yep. My wife feels like she's going to throw her back out when she drives it. The first time she drove it, I asked how it went and she said, "Aside from the fact that I almost ended up with whip lash, it drove great". That might also be from the Jet Chip that's installed.

Superdak, How difficult was the installation? I’m not what you call a skilled mechanic… I can change my oil and I did my K&N intake install, but that would be the limit to my experience. Would you say I’d be better off taking it in somewhere to have it done?

hell no. simple. remove the k/n. this will give you the full acces to the three screws that hold it to the intake manifold. remove the wiring harness from both sensors and unscrew tb. take of the sensors from the factory tb and install them on the new tb. screw new tb onto intake manifold and reconnect the wiring harness. a matter of 30 min. thats it. if you look at the pic. it shows you the two sensors. it is easy
