Yes, I would imagine this beast will destroy that

I'm kinda fixated on the stepped headers / hi flow cats, but perhaps we should chat hehe.

Interesting - hadn't considered this. Gets bloody expensive!

Not yet. Am thinking of an Epic tune, but that's likely a ways out after exhaust and intake (which are after brakes and a more track friendly seat / harness setup). I did put in an Eventuri intake because I had to set *some* part of that S54 sound hehe.
