We didn't finish tuning it friday because of all the problems, he made some minor adjustments for safety. However based on the minor pulls that I've done, I can already feel a big difference. The car spools way faster than before and the power up top is incredible. I will know for sure friday how it really feels when we finish tuning it, but for now I'm not disappointed at all.
