    Great gun and well worth tuning, but why is it being touted as a .177 Imp? Its far bigger with much more swept volume, larger in both bore and stroke. The 280 is more "99-esque" in size.

    Just watch the video on a large TV and if it still sounds twangy perhaps SFS should send of for a tinbum kit LOL.

    Its good to see a tuning house take an interest in something other than the usual offerings and going by the results the decision was justified. The 34 is a well established - solid design with all the basics correct but crying out for some wizardry.
    Here are the results. Very nicely done.
