slow sluggish reving back to idle??
Im not sure if this topic has already been covered but does anyone else notice how sluggish the engine is when you rev it? Like after you rev it it takes like 3-4 seconds before it returns to idle. Anyway to make it more responsive?

Heavy flywheel + fan clutch + oem dashpot setting stops the engine from reving down quicker.
You can lower dashpot settings via the tune, it helps for what its worth. You just have to be careful from keeping it from stalling when coming down.
