Been using the shift buttons alot

And i think im having even more fun driving my car now and for some reason i get better gas mileage cause the AFM doesnt kick in at all
I cant wait to get the long tubes on and a tune so i wont need to use the paddles to avoid the afm.

I use them all the time as well. With my Flowmasters AT I think it sounds great. The only thing better would be headers and a tune. That will come with time.

#31 here and been driving with the paddles ever since i put them on, a piece of advice for all vittess motorsport paddle shifter owners smooth the edges makes a lot of diffrence on the touch they were like blades at first after sanding them it's a whole diffrent story.

I was messing around once as I was driving down the street in Drive, and hit the paddles. I didnt realize that you can switch to paddles without it being in Manual. Then when you stop using them, it shows drive again the the HUD..those paddles are so cool
