I will try and snap some next time I pop the lid. I eventually plan to Cayman airbox the thing and every thing will change.

After the first 50kms I cant say that I feel a big difference in power but I guess I will have to wait for the computer to adjust. A couple of times between 4 and 5k I got some nice thrust but not that much different than before. I was a motorcycle rider way back so I may just be spoiled.

I did get a couple pops/back fire while downshifting which is not usual..but this was early on in the session...hope all is okay. I do have an open by pass exhaust

The intake roar is loud! I am running with my engine lid insulation off for now though....yeah but at 4 to 4.5k the sound is like a dozen angry lions!
