Thanks John, It really helped once i cut about a 1 inch slit in the carpet right where the oem cable comes out!!!
It now is tucked up high and out of the way of my foot/shoe.

WOW what a difference.. after driving around in green and red mode i started to get used to the feeling (Which is bad ass) of how my car was going to act.
So I turned the SB off and my car felt like a dog when driving around town. It really made manual mode soooo much more FUN to drive, the
response is great!

Thanks again John...great price and fast ass shipping!!!

Yes our cars' throttle response feels so dead without SB.

but wouldn't the power box be better/faster if you get +10hp and +10ft lb? Seems like a cheap way to gain some good hp.
