alright...I uploaded a video of it lol. I hit the rev limiter and I could feel it and hear it somewhat. You can't really hear it on the video though.

I order on the phone with Modern. They are nice and very reasonable.
Sucks they closed early due to the hurricane. I placed my order Thurs. b/c of that.

yeah, I got pretty excited. Thats also right after rain. So the air is very humid. It's kinda gonna suck though. I'm not really going to feel a difference with the mod because once I put that PS/AC belt on I'm going to feel a big drop in power

Nah, you'll only get a noticeable drop if you actually turn your AC on...

As far as the revving, yeah that does rev a bit quicker than usual I would say. One word of advice though... don't free-rev like that above 3000 rpm, especially pinging off the rev limiter when you don't have a load on the motor. Bad things happen that way...

I will notice a drop all the time because of the power steering. Not only that but having that belt go around the AC will cause a lack in throttle response.

I think my engine will be fine with a rev here and there. I mean, that is what the limiter is for. If people can turbo their stock engine I don't think revving an almost stock neon will be all that bad.
