I’m on my second weekend enjoying this beast. And it is a beast! The character of the engine has changed. It has such a wide power band. It’s already making serious torque at 3500rpm, so there’s strong thrust anywhere in a 5000rpm range. The rear end feels much more mobile now. It doesn’t take a lot of throttle or revs to make the tail wiggle coming off low speed corners. Fun!
As you would guess, acceleration feels much more savage. A factor in the experience is the sound. I pointed the GoPro straight at the exhaust tips:

The engine revs much more freely. I have a base 7.2 GT3, so my reference is how it used to rev with the stock dual mass flywheel.

Glad you are happy with your end result. I went with new Camshafts to make full use of the extra displacement.
I couldn't see the reasoning to put heavier steel rods back in an engine that had lighter Titanium rods. Why did you not used the stock Titanium Rods?
