You don't understand because thats not what happened. So either your reading comprehension sucks or I didn't explain it clearly. Some people understand but let me try again.

It felt mild in that the ride quality is softer than my car, the engine & exhaust note is less audible (I am stock), and the acceleration is something you watch on the speedometer rather than feel in the seat of your pants. I never said my car was faster or felt faster. I was just comparing it to my car to make a point. If things were as they should have been I would have been comparing it to something else.

There were probably other things at play such as the throttle reset, intercooler pump and this car being more civilized than I expected.
