SOUL Headers Installed - First Impressions !
So finally got them installed this am w/ BMC air filter and picked up the car and ripped down the DVP in Toronto .... impressions... If I didn't have a board meeting at 5 PM I would still be driving ...
11' Cayman S (987,2) 6 SPD
1. Noticeably more responsive especially in the low end 4,000 rpm and up - the car is "alive" by comparison to the stock experience.
2. Less lag than before ... the car could do so much better but held back ...
3. Engine notes slightly louder when you push down on the pedal but not a material change - tips might add a bit more bang but not fussed I was ok with stock.
4. Smoother experience across the RPM band ...less "dead spots" just more fluid
5. Butt Dyno says a "noticeable improvement" over stock hands down even at higher RPM in 4th or 5th gear more responsive !
6. No "check engine light" to be found - so far so good ...
Next step is to drive for a day or so get acquainted with the car and then install the Softronic tune so I can appreciate the "incremental" benefits in power from each step and assess accordingly.
I am told once the tune goes in - its another car entirely. So far - one very happy client ...
