At first it's fine, it's a lot smoother. But it seems after I reach normal operating temp, it gets lagged.
I hear what you're saying. I had those symptoms as well. However, I haven't noticed them as much (or at all) as of 1.5 months ago after I switched to a better fuel (Sunoco). Also, it was noticeably much more responsive in lower RPMs after I cleaned the air filters. It could be a combination of both things....better fuel and intake air flow.

I think my next mod will be CAI......probably STILLEN's because of their filter placement. I don't want to risk sucking up water on rainy days, as it would be more prone with the Injens or AEMs.
