Default Swap Driving Change Question

when you guys got your first swaps, for example from a 70 hp cx motor, to a b18c. how hard of a transition was it? and were u slipping and sliding like mad during rain and snow? i feel like that much power for a lighter car would be a pain in the **** to drive in anything but dry weather, especially if you have performance tires.... boo chicago weather....

just be extra careful when u first drive it...then eventually your newer faster swapped car will become slow again because of course you get used to it...

ya, don't worry about it, no matter what you do to your car it'll always seem slow I went from a pretty much stock hx to an s2k and within a week I was thinking about a turbo
