I've driven it for three straight days now. Not sure exactly why but it runs quieter with a little more pep as if the timing suddenly improved. When I say quieter I could always detect a change in tone of the exhaust shortly after startup.

I run a depowered rack and it isn't bad. If your stopped its a pain to turn it, if your moving slow like 5or less mph it's hard but not bad at all you get use to it.

The absolute best is a real manual rack.

I'm sure it is but have to say having a properly de-powered rack has been pretty sweet.
