    no it didn't run as good as now..it just kicked in really hard for some reason (no CEL at all)...maybe just because it was at the wrong engagement point for the cam lobes. I got a P73 about a month later and the engagement was so much smoother, it's still a big change though.

    hmm, speaking of which, could I run a p73 on my gsr? or it wouldn't work at all?

    not with stock internals...the engagement points are differant for a reason...differant cams, etc...just run a piggy back unit like a VAFC or something to play with the fuel, etc...
