Car feels different but I dunno what it is.

So it's been about a weeks since I replaced my KS.
Yesterday I put on an ebay intake.
But even before the intake, my car has been feeling different.
Off the line, the car seems a little slow(but that's always been the case).
And then usually around 3400rpms, the car will pick up.

Now, it picks up a LOT. My butt dyno is registering something new.
I dunno what it is. It almost like I had vvt or vi or anything that would change the mechanics of the engine.
I feel it a lot more with the intake now (but I don't think it's made me any faster).

Dunno what happened. I thought KS were supposed to help out at low rpms...
hmmmm.

bomz. It's really strange now. In third gear, I have hesitation now at 3300-3800 at partial throttle. Hmm. Better response in 1st and 2nd gear at WOT... Hesitation in 3rd gear at partial throttle. Really stumped...

bomz intake will decrease throttle response, stock intake system has the best throttle reponse

but with bomz, ur car will breath better, and better air induction. it's a trade-off
