Mine too, and really, the only thing I don't like about the car. While an exhaust and intake will change the sound, it really doesn't change the feel....

It may be mental, but I don't feel anywhere near the same harshness as I did from the engine.

Judging from your Einstein pic, I'd say "mental".

Its not buttery smooth but I do feel like it helps the feel out a bit. Could be all in my head, though.
