Maybe they had a lame JCW MCS for you to test drive. You probably have already read what my experience was in one. I have a stock MCS and the JCW MCS takes it up a definative notch on the power output! Feels like there's more than 200 ponies under the hood of the JCS MCS I test drove.

*excitedly* I know I know I know ... pulley pulley pulley *excitedly*

I'm already on the waiting list for Randy's trip to PHX this fall. I'm getting the pulley and the Alta intake. The ECU upgrade sounds too expensive for what you get. I know. It does make a difference, but bang-for-the-buck, or hp/dollar spent, it doesn't stack up with the other mods. If I didn't have two car payments, a student loan and a mortgage, then I'd get the ECU as well as other things. Who knows, I might even give Punisher a stab at changing my blower to a turbo.
