I am thinking about getting on the 2g head bandwagon too.
Haha I think I spent almost every dollar I had on this car last year, I think I just got a little burnt out. Also not driving it makes me not really miss it either, I'm sure once sumemr comes around I'll wish I would've saved more and have a built motor ready and waiting when the stock one goes.

You could come try and drive it if you wanted. They do hold power and will let you shift at a high rpm if you have a tranny that can handle it.

It took me a while to get use to it and not killing it at lights. You will get really good driving on it when you get stuck in rush hour traffic.
Thats good to hear that it should get easier. I think I would pull off and go get food if I got stuck in traffic with this car. I got stuck last year in stop and go once and wanted to shoot myself. I couldn't imagine adding a twin disc into the mix.

I loved that Comp stage 4, wish I could have just been happy at 450 and called it quits.
