After a 70mi round trip yesterday I can conclude that at this point in time I like the deep tone, it is not obnoxious, but the drone when the windows are up is a little loud for my taste. But I am used to a quite camaro at cruising speed. And it's not that loud that it interfered with a phone call I received while driving and answered via the Camaro hands free blue tooth feature. The other party couldn't even tell a difference in background cabin noise. When the windows are down, I don't really notice the drone. My understanding from others is that it will mellow some with time. And I understand that it's something I'll get more acostomed to. These are things that I knew and considered when purchasing the MRT V2; so I am still very happy as evidenced by my permagrin

Ported TB both good for Automatic and Manual tranny? What's the HP difference?

Absolutely. For all practical purposes the improvement would be identical. It is the same engine. The automatic will suffer from a slightly more parasitic loss but in this case the difference is so small it is negligible.
