Well I finally got 1500 miles on mine and did some WOT blasts and the car seemed a bit slower than I thought it should be. So I decided to do this mod. Mine moved a lot. More than 5 degrees and probably more like 10. This is in no way scientific but according to my seat of the pants (SOTP) AKA butt dyno, the car felt stronger. It also seemed to have a stronger/louder exhaust note at WOT. My comparisons are on different days and possibly different environment variables but I'd have to say I'm glad I did this. I don't have a boost gauge other than the stocker but the needle does seem to go a bit higher now. Keep in mind its hard to look at the gauge while at WOT LOL!!

On a side note I also decided to leave the engine cover off unless someone give me a good reason to put it back on other than looks. It seems to help the engine retain heat so it's going to stay on the shelf for a while.
