I sold one of these last year, having tried it on my 5ltr. It did not make much difference but the neighbors complained it sounded like an airplane taking off every time I drove off.
It came with a wider than normal base and carbon Trumpets and was a pig to get a good seal to the base.
You can find more info on the RPI website

That's me convinced hehe

Did it need any mods to fit, or was it just a pain?

Would there be a difference with an extra 4mm ?
