It looks great. I called Dinan today and they said that only 1 has been installed to date. If true, then that is you. They said that only one had been shipped before they ran into their parts difficulty--whatever that means. I am 9th on the list. So, for at least for 1 - 9, they are saying that shipping is scheduled for two weeks from now. I hate it we I am waiting for parts from China.

How about the sound?
Louder? More "howling"?

Actually, that's good as far as I am concerned. Our cars still are luxury cars.

Well, I just had my CAI from Dinan installed last week as well. So I guess Dinan counted wrong.
