i guess we are just getting used to our cars and what initially seemed fast now seems "normal".

I guess coming from an M5 and having a 911 turbo in the garage wont help this issue much M5essex lol
try >£3,500 for the ACS power kit.. i'm not sure I can justify it either, when its likely to only be another 50hp over my CP. the extra torque is noticeable mid-range though, but not £3,500 noticeable...

you're right Jimbo I doesn't help coming from M5 and TTS but I suppose I initially only wanted my daily drive to be 'sporty' and practical, not hyper and scary... but now I do want my M3 to be a bit hyper/scary and give me that perma-grin you mentioned.

i'm just a nob and not satisfied with things for very long.

I think we all just get used to power very soon and yearn for more. i'm just not sure though when enough power is enough..

I drove the Porsche in today and boy that feels very quick. but i'm used to that power now and want to slap a tune on as well

I need help
