Default Wow, stock is smooth!

I thought MTM was like butter, but stock power is just so smooth (and pretty powerful too). It just pulls from 1800 to redline with seemingly little dropoff in power. I know it's because it's running less boost, but it sure is nice.

Default Seems the grass is always greener...

Stock <i>is</i> very smooth and refined, but it only takes me a couple of days to be jonesin' for the booooost.
