night and day difference - It's nice to still get great gas mileage, but I never feel that lack of power like I used going up a hill or passing w/out a downshift. I haven't dynoed it, but I've ran a 5 spd E46 328CI from 80-115. He couldn't pull me at all--higher up in each gear I actually started walking away slowly. I also ran a Z Coupe, and we were dead even from 60-100ish. I didn't see the back, so I don't know if it was the 2.5, 2.8, or 3.0L...

It's worth every penny, though. I may have been better to do an engine swap, but this way my car probably holds a higher value.
