I had it on my M2CS and it was great on the track, annoying on all other roads off track to the point that I switched to a DCT M2CS and like it much better.

Hope everyone has been doing well!
I recently have gone from the 440 to the 460 kit. Had it for 1 week and wanted to share my thoughts. Its only a 20 hp gain but I love the car even more now! Larger pully so my boost decreased. I can feel the gain everywhere but mainly mid and high but I can tell the speed moves faster and cover more ground! No added TQ on this set up until 500 or greater kit. I would have started with the 460 over the 440 if I did it again from the start.
I big part of why I love driving it more is the new headers and y-pipe, both were heat wrapped. The quality of these are amazing, even my shop was very impressed! I did choose to go with high flow cat as well, this is not heat shield wrapped. This replaced my Milltek 3rd cat delete. I still have the Milltek exhaust system with this new set up. This set up sounds absolutely amazing! True F1 exotic sound. Videos don't do it justice but I will post some. (Did anyone know that the stock headers only have 1 cat? My left header was fake had nothing in it and the right had the cat. Idk if that is everyones set up or just mine)
But this set up has made the normal cruising and idle quieter but soon as you go WOT it screams! I have Milltek controller and I run it open all the time, really no need to turn it to OEM or off worrying its too loud. It crazy how its a 2 sided set up now with no gas smell! I might decide to change the high flow cat to the Milltek 3rd cat delete if I want it loud all the time. I would gain 3-5 hp too but right now I am really liking this. But the WOT with or without high flow cat is identical, maybe a very very narrow difference. I also like this bc I still get to hear the intake noise down low!
I also did the cooling kit with this upgrade and I highly recommend! My engine temp started at 200 normal operation stock. After I went with the 440 kit which was just and ECU engine temp was at 185 max operating temp. This was just from the ECU. Then with the 460 kit I did the cooling and now my normal operating temperature 173. Note I only drive in track mode 99% of the time. But a 27 degree decrease in engine temperature is a testament of this ECU and cooling kit from JUBU!
JUBU isn't for everyone. I think if you are serious on your build its for you! I do plan on going to the 530 or 600 kit. Probably 530 so I can spread upgrades to other parts rather than all power! If anyone has any questions let me know!

Car sounds great. Best I've heard yet! So did you choose the sports cat as the only cat, eliminating the one cat on the header?

Yes correct!
Hi @hellasf1 and congrats on your JUBU460 !
I have done the same thing on my Emira, and I will share my feedback on my journal post as well, but pretty much it is the same feedback as you have explained.
However, on track this weekend, I have faced an issue with a power loss, suddenly went to no power for few seconds then back on. Did you try to go on WOT multiple times with this setup on your car, any power loss/cut you experienced?
Thanks,

I did a dyno with the upgrade to make sure we did plenty of WOT pulls. Rene made tweaks and 1 time on the dyno yes that happened. He was making adjustments and the adjustment made car wasn’t happy. He could see it live and fixed it. We did more runs to ensure everything was good and no issues.
I would ping Rene and he can read your data and fix it with a remote session. If you can get on a dyno will be easier but you can plug in your laptop if you have cellular connection you can do street live session and Rene can read and adjust it on the fly.
I just did the dyno to make it easier and controlled environment.
