    DAMN! Now that is what I want!

    Does that URD airflow sensor really make a difference. I was just checking it out online and am not sure if I should get it for my 1st gen.

    My truck is pretty much stock except for the deckplate mod and a Dynomax Super Turbo exhaust

    I have the same problem. My car (1992 Audi S4, 320whp) is faster than my 2.7L truck. Who'd have thunk? But...that's only until the Audi breaks down. :)

    I noticed this too in my wife's 2004 Corolla. It's got a little pep in it that I don't feel in my truck. I'd say it's about equal in the 0-60 thing, but her's just feels* faster. Could be any number of things, but it's all about perception I guess.
