even though i know I can get a piggyback like aem fic and smaller pulley and put it in the car, I rather not, cause ive been boosted with another piggyback before with a different setup and the car isnt the same.
Im sure complex loves the power that hes getting, but is hating the drivablity.
My car's drive-ability is fine. It's not 100%, but I'd say it's somewhere around 97%. My car doesn't stall. The only complaints I have are the bouncy idle, and it takes a few more cranks to start it. These are most likely due to having such big injectors. Even with those small issues I could confidently drive the car across the country again.

I've only had my car at the tuner's once. He couldn't get it to run properly the first day, because the injectors weren't seated properly, and there was a ripped o-ring. The next day he had it tuned, and told me if I wanted he could spend some more time on it to tune out a small hump around the VTEC changeover. I declined because the little hump was always there, and isn't an issue for me. Besides, I do intend on swapping to the 3" pulley soon, so it will likely need another round of tuning.
