Dont know about HP gain but response and butt dyno is good. SRi is good for I/H/E mod, I did 13.9 with it, so it cant be that bad!

If your gonna do cams etc.... go CAI or similar!

Yeah, kinda right angle with the filter pointing towards the steering rod exit hole on the passengers side, if that makes sense.

Sorry no pics!

How are you liking the car?

still learning about it. i'd prefer the seat lower and the car slightly louder, stock is very quiet.

the steering isn't straight atm. when the wheel is in centre, it goes to the right. not sure if it's alignment or the steering rod problem lots of people have in UK.

otherwise love it very much.

By the look of things, you just need a wheel alignment. Steering rod only becomes a problem when you start lowering it mre than an inch or so, otherwise you're ok.

Yeah when I first got it, I thought it was a little quiet for a Type R.
