I notice the dependency on ambient temp (and likely humidity). Seems to not like 37F, for example, but feels more responsive a few degrees above or below. Likely due to humidity difference.

I'm always in Sport + throttle. Also 6mt and I agree it helps quite a bit. Also drove my OGM2 in sport+ exclusively for 4 years with no issues.

For those considering an Akra exhaust, I can report that the exhaust fits in the trunk when taken out of the box. Makes logistics of getting to a shop easier as you can leave the box at home.
