You're welcome At least I'm getting constructive comments here.

I could've easily just posted my positive dyno results on my headers and sports cat and left out the bad results on the intake, muffler and ECU to save myself looking like an idiot who just wasted a bunch of dollars. Afterall, this place is for sharing our experiences. But there're just people that're itching to say "I told you so" once they read about the negative experiences. Just look at the response I got off the UK Boxster board and you'll know what I mean... I'm not posting dyno results (positive or negative) over there anymore.

After going through all this, did anyone notice the European tuners (Gemballa, RUF, etc) mostly leave the stock intake piping in place and just make do with an aftermarket filter element? I think they've gone down the route of the Evo type intake with less than positive results.

So I'm going to source for a BMC filter element and replace the Evo intake kit with the stock piping kit. A dyno and report will then follow

The local dyno shop just loves me....
