The sirio gets excellent run time and has tons of power. You won't be disappointed. The 2013 seems to be the pipe of choice.

I have just acquired a CL7R-Sti engine second hand. It didn't come with any instructions. Could I impose on someone to list the default needle settings, reccomended nitro% and stock head shimming (it seems to have 3 copper and 2 silver shims installed).

Is there talk about a new XXX?
Haven't read or heard anything about it yet.

Or is it going to be a STI version of the XXX?

Do we know what they are planning to change?
The XXX is not that old yet.
