it took some getting used to, but i think i like it! it chatters a bit if the revs are below 1000rpm but i just bring it up to 15-1700 and let it out nice and slow, doesn't chatter at all that way. its tricky going from 1-2 without either banging second or gotta ease it out, not really a in between which bugs me a little cause sometimes i look like a newb with his first stick shift 
god i wish first and second gear were a little closer ratio, first needs to be taller its completely useless @ my power level

It's okay. Trust me, I look forward to getting back. when the women realize that we have two weeks of pent up aggression, they look for us to break their backs. They just leave the regulars alone.
Women just love a horny sailor fresh from being out to sea.

UPDATE: Fired it up last night again. I ran it for about a half hour. brought it up to operating temp and made sure the fans kicked on. didnt take it out cuz 1, i cant find anyone to flash my tune and 2, theres 2 inches of snow on the ground. It ran smooth as hell, didnt burn any coolant. not burning any oil. Its runnin rich but smooth. Fired it up open downpipe cuz the ZZP combo dosnt bolt up to my existing exhaust so that will come off today. It was LOUD as ****. Sounds more like a V8 then it did last time around. hopefully the roads will dry up and i can get ahold of my buddy or someone w/ HPT to come flash me. Wicked sent me a base tune for break in through email but for some reason my buddy couldnt upload it last time we tried. if i fire it up again ill try to take a quick vid w my phone or somethin. my digi cam got stolen at a party. Its finally running and im PUMPED. i might have a pin hole leak in my radiator cuz it was steamin and we couldnt figure out where it was comin from. but other than that everything was good.

well fired it up again, tried to take a vid and its so loud that it distorts the sound. hopefully i can find someone to take a vid of this beast. i cracked the rpms up to about 4500 and its so loud it hurts your teeth. the window in my garage was shaking and drywall dust was falling thru the seams in the drywall on my celing. its nasty loud
