I wouldn't expect neck snapping performance right of the box but i have all faith that a cai/tune on either the 6 or 8 will definetly change things. Good review glad to see one over the sixer
I agree with the thought that a cai and tune should bring this car to life. I also think if it had the 3.31 gears it would have felt better. I'm thinking for the 6 racer the best recommendation would be order 3.31 gears and performance pack. I can't wait to see what people do with these. It was way faster than my nearly full bolt-on 6 but it was so refined I lost that sporty feel I thought it would have
