Revo SS Stiffness

Ok i installed my Revo SS last night....Greatest product for the money... Ok for the rest of you all who have the SS, was it pretty stiff when you first used it. Will it eventually break in to loosen up a little bit. But if you have $100 buy this product no doubt.

it will always be stiff. It might loosen a little but not much. You changed the shift angle on your cable so it is going to be stiffer.

Is this mod as big of a difference that you could see a 1/4 time go down?? Even if it is by 1/10th of a second?

i think we need to combine the DIY from grey's capyoda bushing and clubRSX.com's installation instruction for the B&M SS...

also installation+ from autodynamic.com
http://216.82.69.117/transfer/instal...lation-tip.htm

very helpful indeed.

Yup, it feels very stiff when you first put it in... but after a week of driving... it'll feel smoother. Well for me it does. It might just be my mind though... but yea.
