I do feel a change in my tail, but it feels lighter than before. I removed the rear window, trunk, seat, and seat support. Everything that I've added doesn't add up to what I've taken out. There is also a definite "straightness", for lack of a better way to describe it, that I can feel especially at highway speeds. I drove a stock AWD Honda CRV today and it felt( aside from feeling like a brick with a drag chute on it) kind of "loose" or "jittery"

It is kind of tough to explain, maybe 'Spotter can describe it better. He's been driving his longer that I've been driving mine.
