Turbo + Torque = Mad Crazy

ever since i got my kit installed i never really have had to punch it really.. just glad to have the extra pull when im driving... got most of the bugs worked out so far just got some other things to work on... but the other day i was doing 65 on the freeway.. usually when i am speeding its just casual speeding.. no race or anything... but today on the freeway a crx pulls up next to me and then pulls ahead reving his engine... so me thinking i still am driving all motor drop it in 3rd and as the rpms started climbing it starts pulling hard.. literally hard.... i am only up to 80mph and scared as f**k cause its pulling so hard that i let off the gas... im like the hell... oh well.. thought i would share my first time experiences with you guys... i guess others have gone through this as well.. anyone else care to share theres
