Just getting my HCI 351W dusted off from my 1 year long swap. All I can say is wow, just wow. Took lots of time and patience, but the end result is well worth it. I will have to say that this HCI 351 doesn't spin as freely as my old HCI 306, but the torque it produces definitely makes up for that. I would have to say that this is the best mod I could have possibly done to my car. Gobs of extremely smooth torque and 19 mpg to boot. This son of a gun will lift my big butt completely out of the seat, something my HCI 306 could hardly do. I still haven't stood on it yet.
If it lifts me out of the seat, does that mean my SOTP meter is wildly inaccurate??

you should get an aftermarket meter. the factory SOTP meters suck. you should prolly get a liquid filled one to. there more reliable.

ahhhh, and where-perchance-might one purchase one of these liquid filled SOTP meters? Are you suggesting that soiling ones trousers increases the accuracy of the SOTP meter?
