Glad to hear you got these installed! I really like the increased engine sound, however slight. While the S55's exhaust note may not be everyone's cup of tea, the engine itself sounds very pleasing to me (ASD deleted).

In regards to the CDV delete, how much of a difference would you say it made? Let's say the AS SSK is an 8 (1-10). Also, do you have the UCP?

What shop did your CDV delete?
Went with Independent Motorcars here in SD as they sponsor our AutoX and Chris is a great guy.

So for improvement over stock (completely subjective and assuming stock was around 4-5/10ths of perfect for me) I'd rate the manual mods as follows:

AS SSK - 8.5/10

UCP (with two washers removed from clutch stop, center position, still both springs) - 6/10 pre-CDV delete, 7.5/10 post-CDV delete (May have to play around with the springs)

CDV Delete - 9/10
I can confirm 9/10 on the CDV delete!
