i just got back form the dealership.... I blew my motor couple weeks ago and they gave me a new motor. They replaced all the after markets products from my old engine to my new one except they forgot to instal my aluminum drive shaft....... and the car seems alot more slower.. Im still getting used to driving it around. Would the aluminum drive shaft make that much of a difference. I still need to break in the engine...but i know for sure my car isnt as responsive as it used to be (less pull)

new motor? break that damn thing in! vary your RPM's a lot and get on it hard a few times...don't bounce the tach off the rev-limiter mind you but get on it to get all the seals right.

Hell if the dealership swapped me a new motor without forking any money over knowing it was modded, Id be happy.
