I have to say...I've put about 310 miles on Athena after the simultaneous install of the JCR valved exhaust and Cargraphic valve control, and I was able to drive her today all by myself with the top down. Wow. It's gotten to the point where I feel like a kid again every time I get in the car, like I've found something as an adult(some may argue) that makes me as happy as I was as a kid chasing bubbles. The sound is amazing to me now...I can't even imagine what it'll be like WOT to redline. I was planning to follow break in protocol by the book, but all bets are off for rn. What a treat.

Just finished installed the module. It makes a HUGE difference in sound and I highly recommend it. Shout to @TPLSM3 for the video tutorial. One key thing to remember, as others have pointed out, is that the gray locking clip needs to not only be pull out, but then needs to be pressed in to release the plug.
Also, while taking the car out for a quick joyride, I got a message saying "reduced engine power, driving permitted, visit workshop". I promptly pulled over and turned the car off and powered it back on. I did not have this issue again for the rest of the ~10 minutes of driving. Has this happened to anyone else? I was toggling the valve controller on and off quite a bit. Could that have caused this message to appear?
One potential cause - I didn't fully tighten coolant cap, it was about a half turn too loose. Not sure if this had anything to do with it

These are exactly the ones I have and used for my valve controller install. Even got my fat head underneath.

Remotes should be identical. There is a slider that covers the buttons. Slide it down to reveal.
