When's mapping happening with the standard airbox back on? Be interesting to hear your thoughts on the two

Today.
I'm expecting a slight uplift in power as I say (maybe only 5hp or so) BUT more consistent intake temps which is more important. With the cold air feed (which I've had for a while) it's kinda just loose below the revolution intake pointing at it. When you've got the standard airbox, it's attached the the trumpet so the car really only does get air from outside the engine bay and can't draw anything in from inside. So intake temps are no more than +2 degrees over ambient, even in stationary traffic etc. Ideal 
I'll miss the noise tbh (but you more than anyone would know the exhaust more than makes up for it).
I've sold the intake already by all accounts (£350) - so that'll go some way towards the new plugs and coilpacks that are being fitted today @ £500!

Cool, be interesting to hear your thoughts.
I'm thinking to do the same when I eventually find the time to send mine down to MRC for CAF, de-coke and remap. I originally only got the Revolution intake for the noise, which is great until you put an exhaust on, as you know. Only downside is the OE airbox looks a bit bland

So - car's all fixed. Just needed plugs and coilpacks thankfully.
With the standard airbox back on (carbon one removed) car's up on power to 449hp. Very healthy

I need to double check - it was 491nm before - I think it's 493 or something now - almost identical. I've not seen the graph yet but apparently there's a nice improvement under the curve too - I've asked Doug to do a graph showing the before/after airbox change on the same graph so will be interesting to see

Pity you can't show a Bavarian barge a corner... Or a wet road... Or even a roundabout.
