I'm sure you will get sweaty palms soon

For me it was too slippery with bare hands or with gloves. Now with gloves it's going to be very nice

Got some coilover excitement happening with Dixon too. Will take a few weeks to reveal that one

Yep I think it will go one of 2 ways. Some have said it gets louder, i've found generally they quieten down once sooted up and the packing settles. I was hoping for more noise than this though. I thought it would go nuts in VTEC

On another note, got all my cylinders compression checked and they are all 240 plus or minus a few psi, which is great. Also my sump was spotless when it came off so it looks like I have a nice healthy engine!

In the short term it might quieten down as it soots up but at some point it will get louder as the packing burns off and is blown out of the back

Yep, although hopefully the packing doens't come out This one is stainless rather than titanium therefore much more suited to being under the car.

Just noticed what a shit tip my garage is, wouldn't belive you can fit 2 cars in there Task for tomorrow...

On another note, i'm just looking into some cams...

My titanium J's is holding up well, it's at least third hand and a few years old, but no signs of any trouble brewing ATM, I have been really happy with it.
So light aswell it's amazing. Also quiet at low revs but extremely aggressive loud sound in VTEC it's perfect IMO.

I'm surprised you didn't go J's 70RS single mark.
