Congrat, I have the same setup that I'd need to install on my car after I do the 45K service.


So how much did you gain total?

Congrats, Jon . . . Glad to read that you are enjoying the MREV2. Now, I just need to get the time to install the MREV2 on the dyno and compare it to the MREV+.

Yes, Andy I can't wait for your dyno, and I know many others are anticipating your dyno runs before and after install...Since I only had a post install dyno done, your dynos will surely be the first real test of the MREV+ vs. MREV2 on the revup on this message board. Thanks for all your help Andy!!

Unfortunately, I didn't have a pre-install dyno done, so I really can't say how much I gained--When Andy gets his done, that will be a much better indicator, but I can tell you that my butt dyno tells me it was worth it.

I don't think I gained anything on the grounding kit, but the idle is so much smoother now and I am very glad I went w/ Gord's kit. If you have an auto, I think you will notice more immediate benefits. Hope that helps.

The MREV2 is a newer version of the MREV+. It has been machined a bit more from what I have seen so far.

You say the idle is much smoother now? I installed a grounding kit last night, wondering what idle smoother actually means so I can look for it?

Before I installed gord's kit, occasionally I would notice a rough idle (rpms would slightly drop from where it usually is and the car would shake). Now, when in neutral, the car is absolutely smooth w/ no shaking and vibrations at all (besides the shifter and clutch pedal of course). Hope that helps.
