My time to shine! Hi guys, I have just received and had an S2 kit installed on my DCT car. I have only had my car for about 90 days total and I knew the second I purchased it that I would end up with a harrop on it. I have known Mike for 7+ years and knew that texting him and telling him my car was too slow was bound to happen.
My initial impressions:
1- holy shit. WOW.
2- the noise. It is intoxicating. The whine is unlike anything I have ever heard.
3- the power is absurd. I live at altitude ( CO Springs), and even still the power is insane. It feels endless; power delivery is excellent. My car is FAST.
4- The support from Mike during purchase/install/tuning was top notch. 10/10. I had my kit in a few days from purchasing it and he had my tune ready to go once install was under way. He went above and beyond from start to finish. He is the best in the business and is one biggest reasons I went with the Harrop. Everyone knows the Harrop is not the cheapest supercharger option and I am happy to report that a Harrop/Mike/BPM combo is one of the few times you get exactly what you pay for- the best of the best.
DCT: I was a little worried that the car would be kind of boring with a DCT but I was so wrong. I have never owned a fast automatic car but I am glad I have this one. The DCT is very fun and engaging but you feel like you're driving an exotic car at the same time. I know the DCT is not for everyone but I do enjoy it a lot. Mike gave me some tips on which DCT settings to use and I have had no slippage so far.
Overall it has COMPLETELY changed the car and I am absolutely thrilled with it. I am very much looking forward to logging more miles. I will try to report back after some more miles.
