I got 1.5k and It already catchs hight, but doesn't feel like its getting burnt. But I was catching high from Day one, I think i got to adjust the Pedal or something. It grabbs good if you roll it out quick though.

8k miles and still grabs just as good as it did when I first got it. Oh yeah, I even learned how to drive manual on this car and I've been making good power since 1500 miles.
