If thought that my 300D was adequate power wise, but would not have minded more...Then just a few days ago, I was reading one of the posts when I decided to give the Bowden cable adjustment one more try. Much , much to my surprise and elation, the car had a significant improvement in acceleration...mostly due to the fact that by the time I had hit 20mph or so I was already in 4th gear, even at full throttle (not pressing on the kickdown switch). Now, it shifts later and I actually get to take advantage of 2nd and 3rd gear for more than just 2 sec. at best.
ps I wouldn't mess with the boost either, besides I have yet to hear of anyone needing to do so.
See ya!
