PRM Jetstream Prototype CAI

After 90 kms (55 miles) driving, first impressions/observations:

Note: vehicle is a 2006 LB with automatic transmission

1. No CEL
2. Looks great
3. Excellent fitment
4. Pipe is cold to the touch at the throttle body
5. At my normal highway cruising speed, I'm turning 100-125 rpm lower??
6. Butt Dyno says:
   1. More torque off the line
   2. Somewhere between 4,500 and 5,000 rpm, the engine feels increased power gains

Unfortunately we've been dealing with heavy rains all day, and driving tests were not too vigourous. Also, while doing some WOT, I encountered a cop while doing 40km over the limit. Not pulled over, but spooked me out of further spirited driving.

it's an observation. At 2800 rpm I was travelling faster than normal.

its too bad that this is impossible.

Subconsoius pulse&glide maybe. Brain registers the fact that I'm moving faster, glance at cluster - speed is up, but rpm has wound down some. This was on the 401 so I couldn't maintain a constant speed for extended periods of time. Throttle response is quicker so reaction to slight increases in petal pressure may be a characteristic that has changed. Gotta drive around more with this thing on to better assess.
