The rev hang is what really screws things up, its actually my biggest complaint about the car. The PowerAxel reflash though is supposed to virtually eliminate it and I have been reading it helps the engine braking too. Hyundai says the reason for all that was emissions but I dont know much about that too be completely honest. Ill tell you for sure once I get all my stuff on there especially the reflash h:

WOW, congrats

I test drove one the other day and was pretty impressed with the car for what it is. I'm really contemplating on getting it. But after talking it over with the lady, looks like I'll be driving her 350z for a short while until we move onto another car. Oh well, please give us feedback after all your mods
