I feel that I'm a little more keen to the feedback my car gives me than average, I noticed that after I installed the selin, I didn't feel almost any bottom end gain, I felt that the turbos didn't run out of steam on the top end like they did before, what I speculate had happened was the power gain I got at the top didn't make the car pull harder because I added no torque to the already existing torque peak, the torque was added after the peak which broadens the power band and makes more hp, so your perception is no gain, but the best way to measure that gain is by noticing the pull drop off (or lack thereof) after the initial yank. As far as feeling a car for horsepower.... it's all relative and the problem is, your body will get used to it which clouds your scale of difference, hp is like a drug, it takes a bigger dose to achieve the same high, once you start losing the wow factor you start thinking the car isn't making enough. your butt dyno will calibrate to accept the new power curve as slow. If I were you I would sell those turbos the next time the motor is out and put that money toward either gtx/jwt700's or 530's or stockers (excellent for the street and throttle response and they'll still flow ~430 rwhp on pump) lose the front mount and if you haven't already- get it dynotuned for sure.....I promise you wont regret it.
