Does the A8L have a center resonator like this that could be removed? If so, would it sound much louder and better? Anybody done this?

Installed tuning box on my S8 plus from Vivid racing. Noticed immediate upgrade in torque above 2k. Ran a couple of timed runs with a hand stop watch and seemed to pick up about 3/4 secon to 100.

There is only one adjustment dial on the box and I will have to look as I do not know from memory where it was set. The original box was for the non plus version and I returned it - its possible that only the single dial was changed rather than them "flash " a new program - I assume that the current box just fools the computer like a standard electronic boostcontoller ands lets the smart engine software push more fuel into the cylinders.

unlike a true flash (APR) which hopefholly brings enhanced resoltion fuel maps over generous rpm/boost ranges.
