As I was first on the dyno that day, and the car had been standing around a bit the car probably suffered from a bit of heatsoak. I think the first figure is a little low.

either way, it feels quicker all through the rev range.

Its also girlfriend approved: "Ohh, sounds throaty! I like it", said mine. She also noticed the power gains too.

From what I saw on the day I would say the rollers were not loaded enough to bring out the proper numbers on your car.

Some of the results were a bit hit and miss TBH, but there is more power from your car now for sure, im just not sure how much but it does sound better!!

It sounds like mine now!

Yeah, as a whole I would say the whole car is a bit quieter, but the exhasut note itself is deeper, more throaty and growls better than before. The JCW exhaust with GTT manifold/decat sounded a bit tinny at the higher RPM.

This was like my Delta with the RMW head. No one would believe it but it was real and unfortunately (or not) it was the first.
