visual difference between mrev2 and oem

I tried to search, but I coulndt come up with anything. Anyway, I bought my 06 G35 coupe in September and I know it has a popcharger, 5/16" spacer and cat back(I think HKS).
I bought a polished upper plenum that I need to put on yet, but while I have the top plenum off how will I know if there is already an mrev2 installed? Does anybody have any pictures of an mrev2 compared to an oem lower?
Thanks in advance.

If you drive a 5AT the MREV2 won't do much for the car, even with a tune. If you're a 6MT that's a different story entirely.

I was told that it would make a diff with a tune.

Mine is an 06 6mt, so if it doesn't have one, I will definitely be getting one.

Tony at Motordyne has said that even with a tune you're looking at maybe 5hp max. Not worth it for $400 IMHO.

I got an 06 6mt with Borla cat back exhaust and K&N drop in filter and recently put the MREV2 on, its a noticable difference in "pull" and awesome intake note. was gonna get the 5/16 spacer but am thinking of getting the Kineix racing V+ plenum. any input on how those will mix? Also i will for sure be buying motordynes ART test pipes too.
