I adjusted my throttle cables today and much of my jerkiness went away but I'm certainly not experiencing the power you all are describing off the line. I've got to rev mine up more than I think I...

Since the original post I haven't had any pinging that I can hear after topping off with different fuel. I think I either put lower octane fuel in or just got lesser quality fuel with...

Thanks all. I am not sure if I put premium in this last fill up or not. I'll top it off with premium and see if that helps.

I certainly get needing to downshift from higher gears but at over...

Makes sense. I didn't even think it about them as I wasn't expecting them to be "pre-wired"

Thanks all... I think this will be a "future" upgrade since it'll cost another 2x the cost of the springs.
