I removed my oil cooler today - after noticing that my MIVEC wasnt always working right. Anyhow, that solved the problem - now that distinctive increase in engine noise and acceleration occures everytime.

Not sure why a oil cooling system would affect it, but it was a mistake fitting that to an NA car seems faster now.

The car is really fast as it is, I can only imagine what the turbo is gonna be like!

Maybe it wasn't building up as much pressure as it needed.

Thats what I thought, I can't believe I've been driving the car for 3 months without MIVEC working 90% of the time.
