It's interesting owning a basically stock TPI IROC and a 5.0 mustang at the same time. I got the IROC on the road today and the ****** pulls strong all the way up to 6K, the mustang on the other hand falls flat on it's face at 4500RPM. I'm honestly thinking the 4.10 gears are hurting that fox more than they're helping.

Yeah if i take off the PS, it'll get a manual rack. Debating trying to make the HHR/Equinox electric PS on the column work. One less belted accessory and less fluid filled hoses in the engine bay intrigues me, and more room for activities.

My car has a manual rack and I drove it this past weekend around 250 miles round trip. About 200-20 highway and the rest city. It takes a little more effort from a stop or slow speeds as you would expect, but I am not a large person (6' about 170 lbs) and I have no issues comfortably driving my car around. It also has a full spool.

Cool. Maybe ill just try it with the manual rack first and keep the electrics as plan b. Not hard to swap back if I ever decide I have to have it.
