come to think of it, I've never had the car in ECT Power mode.

Something to try on the metered on ramp tomorrow morning...

Congrats... Glad you like the combo!!!

If you wanted to do a quick test, swap back to the stock intake and stock filter..
IF the car doesn't chirp then your'e on to something..

Sometimes all it takes is an extra 5-10 rwhp / torque to get a nice chirp out of the lower gears!!
