The car would look just as ugly to Brittany even with a T-trim under the hood.

Centrifugal blowers don't feel as impressive as roots/twin screw blowers to me. I'd imagine you're used to the instant full boost from the Eaton on the Lightning. I drove QWKSNKE's car, and while it has more power than my car while weighing a good bit less (and is crazy fast), my Cobra seems to plant you to the seat harder or something. Centrifugals are much smoother since boost builds with rpm and the power comes on more steady.

yeah i loved my Eaton. i like that hard hittin power down low.

but when i ride in Chips car it just feels like it would walk all over me. i know its faster but it feels way faster and way more powerful.

maybe its just me... who knows???

Cars always feel a lot more powerful when you are riding compared to when you are driving. Find someone you trust and let them drive your car hard while you're in the passanger seat -- you will definitely tell a difference.
