My BHR Expirience
It's 12:45am, and I have to work very early in the morning. But I wouldn't feel quite right if I didn't get in here right away and say thank you to the BHR guys. The reason I am not fast asleep is because I couldn't bring myself to make that last turn into my neighborhood until my tank was absolutely empty.
I'm not a mechanic by any means. But I'm reasonably intelligent and I'm not afraid to try. I have read about everyone else’s experiences installing their kits, so I knew it was going to be a tight fit, and yes, it was even tighter than I expected, but I had the kit installed in just over an hour. I finished up at around 9pm, so had to run out for a quick test drive.
Improved throttle response? CHECK
I love my 8 again like the first time I drove it? CHECK
I drove the absolute **** out of my 8 for more than 3 hours straight after the install? CHECK
I'm sure my old coils were not in good shape and the plugs were pretty shitty, but I didn't expect THAT much of a difference. Ran it through all the gears and revved it right out many many times and it never missed a beat. The NO to GO is probably the most improved. Every time I launched the car before, even in daily driving situations, i would rev it to about 3 grand before i even started letting the clutch out. I think now the wife would even be able to get a descent launch out of it.
Mr. Hill, I thank you. BHR crew, I thank you. Know that you are putting a HUGE smile on someones face with every kit you build.
Now I gotta get to sleep as fast as I can so I can get up and drive my 8 to work! My god that's that gonna be the best part of the morning......

Cannibal, that's awesome news!
Hope you got a good night's sleep because today you get to drive your 8 again.
