Nice, even now with close to 600hp on my car, I can only imagine what another 130 or 140hp feels like.

Picked my car up today. I cannot believe the power of this car. I haven't even fully opened it up yet and the power I've felt thus far is scary!!!
This weekend I'll find a nice open parking lot and play with it a bit and test it's limits.

This is just a quick video I made outside of Sean Hyland's (they did the Super Snake conversion). This was how the car was parked when I pulled up.

The car handles very well. The power is scary though! Seriously, I only have to depress the gas pedal about half an inch and the car will take off and throw you back into your seat!
Before the upgrade I always thought the car was pretty powerful but I never felt like I was being thrown back. The SC power would push you back (but the push was gentle) and the power would just keep building.
Now the car will jolt you back into your seat.

I took the car in yesterday to get an oil change. The SVT tech does all the oil changes on SVT vehicles at my dealership. He used to race cars so he knows how to drive a performance car very well.
He was blown away by the looks and the upgrades to the car. All the techs were, everyone was crowded around and snapping pics with their phones.

After the oil change he says- All done, we just need to take it out for a ride! ( a test drive naturally) I laughed and said I was going to ask you if you wanted to drive it. We head out to a little section of highway close by and he's driving this car like I could only dream of driving it! I'm hanging on like I'm on a roller coaster ride. He's laughing and grinning the whole time. He can't believe the power and acceleration from the car. We hit the off ramp and I'm thinking we're going a little too fast but I trust him. Again it was like a roller coaster as we whipped around the corner. He was impressed with how the suspension set up in the corner.

Next oil change I'm taking my video camera to try and capture the feeling.

A nice long straight empty road would probably serve you better. BTW does the speed limiter still shackle the car to 155 mph (250 kph)?

I don't believe so. I haven't got the car up to that speed yet.
I'm pretty sure the tune from Kenne Bell removes it.

I've been to Sean H's a bunch of times to see what they are working on. Would have loved to have seen your car sitting in the parking lot. Looks great and sounds awesome.
