I feel like this is a car that should have great induction noise over exhaust...

Oh, and maybe tuning to support an 8k redline
Could be interesting, though in it's current state of tune and current cams, power output is dropping off after 7000 rpms, so a modified cam profile would be required there. Possibly different springs and retainers to support it, and hopefully the rotating assembly has been tested to be stable at that speed. Then you might see some relevant gains above 7k.
