? for all you FI guys.

What was your first reaction or thought the first time you went WOT after installing your kits? Was it "holy s**t", "WTF" or "I want more" or anything you guys have said. Just curious since I will be FI soon. I just want to prepare myself.

It is a whole different animal. Depending on your FI setup it will either feel like a really really fast NA version of your car (SC) or no power and then holy crap I can't peel myself out of the back of my seat power. I have the Holy crap I can't peel myself out of my seat power (TT). The first few times you hit it, you just want to get off boost only to spool it up again and again. If you aren't careful with how fast the power comes on you could easily redline because the rmps climb so quickly in 1st. You never totally get so used to having that kind of power beneath you foot, but it settles in to a nice comfortable level. You know how fast the revs climb, you knwo how hard you can jam it in 1st to not break lose and it just becomes a road beast. You can lay waste to a lot of cars twice as expensive and depending on how you do the exterior no one would even know until you scream by them and your BOV goes crazy in their face, then they get it.

It was almost scary the first time I went full boost.

Yesterday I ran 2nd to about 6k at full boost and my daughter goes "that one made my stomach lurch".

I wouldn't know. I've had my car back for 2 weeks w/ no exhaust and no tune so I can't go WOT yet. I have a strong feeling I'm goin to want more though.
