Good question, gents.

Not sure if we will be able to dyno with the stock and M370 because I have the stock piece with me 3 hours away from car... but that's the theory we're going on... yes, in NA, M370 = *slightly* flatter curve, which I think it pretty well documented in Tony's thread...

I'm wondering if there's something I can do with the exhaust as well to flatten out the power delivery

My gut-level instinct would be to downsize your exhaust flow a bit to match the desired peak. In general that seems to be the directionality of these things. Within reason, an oversized exhaust will give peak gains and cut low-end torque, and an undersized one should do the opposite.

IIRC you are running a single-exit... you could play around with an H crossover ahead of where both your pipes collect into the single. Sort of like a NASCAR short-track setup where they are trying to maximize low-mid range power.

It has taken 2 evenings but I read this whole thread. Great work. While reading there were several people mentioning warped rotors. Have a look at the attached article. I have had "warped rotors" and fixed them with a power drill and wire brush on both surfaces just cleaning the friction material off. Its alot cheaper than the $400 rotors I was replacing at the time.
