Also have you mod your exhausts? Okada does it's job best when the exhausts are better, it's a must to go with the spark enhanced coils!
Will be having the Hamann quad. I need to investigate more on the SplitFire.

Ok, thanks for your advice guys. Enough said. No engine mod for me until my warranty period ends. i.e. no coils change and mod.

But is BMS Power Box considered engine mod? Is just ECU piggy bag, right? Can dealer trace it? Not sure if it's worth it? HK$2.5k for 10+ More Horsepower & 10+ More lb-ft Torque.

Power Box costs around HK$2,500 and only 10+ More Horsepower & 10+ More lb-ft Torque. Not even 5% increase.
so that $250 for each hp that is very cheap

put it this way
SBv2 cost 2.5k too and no HP or Torque gane so the BMS is very cheap for what it dose.
