After tooling around all afternoon running errrands there have been a lot of upgrades to the driving experience. As I stated before the idle is rock solid. Hot start is now smooth, it used to stumble for 3-5 seconds after startup.

Low end torque seems massively improved. Off the line performance is a lot better. There used to be a semi-flat spot between 1000-2500rpm in first gear. Also shifts are a ton smoother. The downshift from 2nd>1st at 25mph hooks up smooth and fast, whereas before the engine would hesitate a slight second when I kicked down and then JUMP forward somewhat violently.
