Renntech lowering module increase engine performance?

I just had the Renntech lowering module installed by Creative Autoworks, btw thanks James & Dell, and not only does my vehicile look and handle better but for some reason or another, the car seems to have increased engine performance. The car pull so much harder than ever before. When they installed the lowering module, they disconnected the ECU thereby resetting the ECU. I have done the ECU reset via ignitiion and gas peddle method and never has it increased performance like the way it has after putting in the lowering module. I guess reseting the ECU really works if you do it right. I need to find a way to reset my ECU like how it was when my lowering module was installed. I guess I can alway disconnect the battery cable overnight, I hear that works?

Hehe, we should plan a Vegas Meet soon. Maybe those of us that couldn't make the track day can get together and hit the vegas strips??

You didn't head all the way here just for the install, did you?

Actually just got back today (Sunday) and spent a couple days in downtown, 10 minutes away from the gas lamp district. The drive was great cause I noticed a considerable difference in the handling after the Renntech lowering module install. It's as if my E55 pig lost a lot weight and now handles real well. I definitely recommend the lowering module as one the first upgrades to do on your E55.

Nice, glad you like it. How low do you keep it? You'll notice needing more balancings with the stiffer ride. Definitely brings the thing to life a bit.
