2.7 softronic owners - opinions wanted

Was it worth it? What's are the noticeable differences? Would you do it again?

I'm on the fence so convince me one way or the other.

Re: 2.7 softronic owners - opinions wanted

I did it on my 3.4 and no doubt I would do it again. I noticed performance gains even with a fouled air filter. I was even more impressed with how well the engine ran after the ECU Flash. You will notice a change in exhaust sound too.

If you are planning (even long term) on updating all intake/exhaust components then it is a no brainer.

I have a 2007 2.7 liter 5-speed and Just did the SRP and Flash Install 2 weeks ago and I highly reccomend it for the 2.7 liter.
I Initially had Just the flash and it was a great improvement in power and tourque ,Very noticeable and then I installed the SRP and it feels really Smooth .Very cool.I did not notice as much of a power increase with the SRP untill you really gas it 4000 RPM or so but compared to stock it virtually feels like a different motor to me.The SRP did change the sound of my Remus exhaust slightly but nothing extreme.
My 2.7 feels like it does not struggle as hard In all areas of performance and seems to cruise on the FWY with a little more ease then before. SMOOTH power is how I would describe it and more of it.
When I first saw the SRP in person I was amazed at the quality compared to the plastic stock one I removed.Really a great bargain for what you get.
I would definately purchase this product again I am very satisfied with the quality and product performace I have achieved.
If anyone in my area would like to test my car for themselves please do not hesitate to pm me I would be glad to accomidate. Hope this helps Sauserman

Re: 2.7 softronic owners - opinions wanted

My 07 CS 3.4 received the flash and plenum; Wow what a diff!
Power comes through much earlier and continues through till you let the gas pedal go. The stock exhaust sounds much better. I drove all day today and it took me a couple of hours to get used to the new car... and I did not want to get out of my car. I was also very impressed with the customer service offer by Scott (Softronic). The instructions were quite clear and straight forward. My only complaint is that the pipe fittings of the adapters for the Plenum could be a bit better. Overall; Money well spent...
