Not so much feedback, as a question really. How did it feel under acceleration. I'm just asking, because you have the best part of 90bhp less than my Charger and a not dissimilar weight. But I ended up shortening the gears on the Charger because it just didn't feel as if it wanted to pick up speed.

Your gears look longer (are they stock?) so I'm wondering how that affected performance.

Actually, the gears are stock. The Final Drive has been raised a bit (3.30 is stock, 3.60 is my number), which in turn shortens the gearing.  Felt like it did what I wanted it to - didn't bog down when changing gears, and wasn't revved so high it was spinning tires everywhere.  I honestly didn't spend much time with this tune...I didn't even get into individual gears with it, and a higher rear ARB than front is not normal for me in a RWD car.  It didn't get fully worked over...just enough for it to do what I wanted it to at those short Snake tracks.
