i did this to my celica and i felt a little bit of difference. the throttle was a lot more responsive! and the first time i did it, i set it a little too high. i idled at 2900 rpm. hehe

2k2civicballer, ur ride is sweet but that wing looks like it is angled WAY too much!!! it seems to me that all it's doing is slowing u down. sorry if i offended u, it's just IMHO... (i have a APR v-spec 2 on my car)
