I agree. You can barely hear them.
We need more 407 videos, there's bugger all on YouTube, surely there is more people on here who have the w407

I was under the impression that Walkinshaw use a generic flash tune with their packs, so it's interesting to hear that formula tech did a custom job for you. Maybe the better drivability you're getting compared to the original test drive vehicle comes down to that custom tune, in other words anyone looking at the W407 should ask the shop beforehand if they can also wave their own magic over it, and still keep the warranty.

My wife would cut my testicles off with a pair of scissors if I spent 10k on a W407 pack. I wonder how much the cam and it's accessories are to buy and fitted by a local tuner? I already have the exhaust and intake sorted.

It's bloody highway robbery. 1/6 the cost of the car, for a cam, exhaust & tune etc!
