I just bought one of these guys and am getting it installed sometime in the next week or so...

I was just curious how much of a difference I will notice if any at all. I got them to compliment the gears I am getting next month. Any of you guys have a DS? Notice anything different? I'm not expecting much to be honest but it is always good to see what others have experienced.

Since you are getting gears your d/s will be tend to be spinning faster at any given time. This will increase the probability of d/s vibration being felt. An aluminum d/s will minimize this so it is a good idea to do d/s when doing gears.

So to summarize what you will "feel" is hopefully nothing, no vibration...

wow pretty sure I didn't even use the word "feel" in my post so I don't know where you got that from but thanks for describing what I already knew in terms of d/s vibration tendencies. I really FEEL like I learned a lot from that waste of disk space you call a post.

I do however now remember why I, along with most, don't post up here anymore or even visit. My question was what type of (S.O.T.P. - seat of the pants) difference will I notice... I think that was obvious Guess not.

I will refund his money immediately

WTF did I do to offend you so?

I was just trying to help you. Doing the aluminum d/s with the gears is a great idea, do you not like being complimented?

Anyways, I am putting him on my ignore list. Life is too short for that kind of negative energy. Someone else can help him...

yeah I went back and read that... that came off the wrong way as it was meant as more of a joke... I put a thumbs up at the end... HAHAHAHA!!!

sorry guys... I remembered Kilgore as a bit of a smart ass. I was just ribbing him a bit, but I can see how it could be WAY misconstrued.

once again... I'll send him an apology PM!!!

I hope that settles my being a jack ass... I have had a bad day too... eh well. Sorry fellas...

I doubt it as I have a vibrating mold of Jenna Jameson's vagina in my driver's seat... makes long distance trips go REAL quick accept after five minutes I feel like falling asleep

Now that I understand the question I am going to say that there is no SOTP by installing aluminum d/s.
