Never noticed any, but it is race car and it is track only for me. I tell folks to be carefull since the metal center tunnel gets really hot after a track session and touching it is not fun. It is fine in my race gear, but not good with bare skin.

I made my own, but fellow spec racer Tim Comeau sells set that he makes.

While it is a 2.7l, the relative gains from exhaust, chip and other small things should be the same. I'd love to see our dyno sheets compared - my most recent is attached below. Here's the list: 2.7l, NO internal mods, Bursch header, no cat, 2x Dynomax Ultraflo mufflers, MSD-6a ignition, MSD Blaster2 coil, 8mm Kingsborne wires, BERU Silverstone plugs, K&N panel filter w/cut-off airbox, AC Delete, GURU chip, ~110 octane and one Paragon Products Motorsports windshield sticker

If Joe or anyone else has the text of their dyno's, I'll take on entering them into Excel to get some fair comparison.

uh-oh - am I the purple? No wonder the 2.5l guys protest me Even with the standard 100# weight penalty, looks like a bit of a mismatch. Now we need the S motor stock and after some mods, eh. Thanks, Joe!

He is Jon Milledge and can be found here:

The "ITS Organizer" may seem pricey at first glance at $100, but the information would take a fair amount of time and money to come by.

I don't think he has the info for the 16v yet, but I'm sure if you buy what he currently has, I'm sure he'll be willing to consult with you as he discovers info about it.
