Drivetrain Modest gains on my MCSa
what are these coils you speak of and what use are they?
After 3 days of driving the car with the new exhaust, pulley, plugs and coil pack I've noted:
1. The car seems to be getting stronger everyday. I'm attributing this to the ECU learning how I drive again along with adjusting to the mods.
2. The car definitely pulls harder and longer smoothing out the acceleration.
3. Its easier to get the power I want without flooring it and forcing a bad shift.
4. When I'm in the mood to motor I love the sound of the exhaust.
5. When I'm not in the mood the exhaust drone is annoying.
Overall I give it

WOOHOO! I got that rattle taken care of and man oh man its nice. The bolts from the first clamp of the exhaust had been rattling up against a part of the undercarriage creating a nasty rattle.
Now that its gone the exhaust also seems to drone LESS at highway speeds. Maybe the rattle was causing stuff to resonate?
I don't know but I am super pleased right now.
