I have driven twenty or so different NA's over the years and have to say some were a dam sight peppier than others.


We helped Sharko's wife buy an 04 six speed. bone stock and it was stronger and peppier than mine after Eurocharge did their first tunes. We could never figure out why but anyone who drive Debbie's red coupe had the same comments. when crumpy was looking for her own Crossie we drove at least ten local cars for sale. Most were wimpy in comparison to mine. I was amazed at the difference. However, having dynoed none of them, it was pure butt meter calibrations.


I'm still a little mad that Sharko sold that coupe without giving me a chance to buy it. Sometimes they just get one right. It was one of those.
