Went to Raub to claim my 1st service chop (now that I FINALLY have my Service Booklet) and for some lunch (best halal Chinese food in these parts -> Raub) - so got to go let my MIVEC roar.
Plus I need to get used to the improved throttle response.
Even without other mods, the LCP + Intake holes makes the rev meter go up scarily fast. Tekan throttle = huge grin on my face. I can't image how it would be with BOT edi - too much power is a bad thing no?
Yes, the revs go down quicker when I release the throttle too but upward response in pin sharp when I press again - there's a noticeable lack of lag in power delivery now compared to before, so much so that I'm not paddle-downshifting as often to overtake any more. It's like mash accelerator and it just goes.
Prolly the VS + Grounding is helping out as well.
Bonus is LCP + VS = Engine idles smooth and quiet when I stop. Not quite Insect quiet but fucuking close edi.
Issue? I might need new brake pads pronto and my feet are cramping because I need to feather the throttle lighter to mantain cruising speed vs just mashing it comfortably 1/3 of the way before.
So, bottom line, is the LCP worth it? Fucuking yes IF you want improved RESPONSE. If you just wanna GO FASTER(ER), I'd say an extractor is more bang for the buck (especially if you go Marko/Marko-copy).
