its a deep tone, not raspy at all, there is pretty much no drone at highway speed, and when you go WOT it really sounds good! i will make a video tomorrow with my gopro and post it up

My data logs show nominal voltage and current. That's at temps between 70°F-95°F. Like other lead acid batteries, capacity declines with temps but others here who run them year 'round in cooler climates say they perform well into the 20's. But with only 15 AH, don't expect to sit around idling with accessories on for long.

Around November, at the end of track day/autocross season, I'll swap the OEM battery back in and put the Braille on a trickle charger.

Specs are here:

Bought a used PERRIN filter from a local. Wouldn't know it was used if he hadn't said it though. Good lookin filter. Will probably wait til next weekend to start wrenching as my Berk muffler delete pipe arrives on Wednesday. Stoked!

Discovered one of my OEM fog lights is out, after having them only a few weeks.

Installed GT86's exhaust tips yesterday, and then hit 1,000 miles earlier today. Break-in is officially ended.
