Ditto!

Worth the drive.
You've heard the term "Set it, and forget it"?
These guys know their shit, and these motors and their systems
I wouldn't go ANYWHERE else for tuning

I'm going to Drift Office this Saturday myself. Heard good things.

Excited to see what they're capable of and what the BRZ is capable of in terms of tunning.

Here's a tip. don't look for fancy signs or advertising. don't look for a Blingy showroom. Be prepared for an education in import tuning principles and be ready to meet what I consider the best 86 tuners on the West Coast. You'll not be disappointed, I can assure you.
Sure they'll act humble. That's their style. Bill and Bob are the best, hands down!

Not unless you get a header or go FI, that "torque dip" is here to stay. If you ever head up this way, I'll be happy to show you what we know.

just came back from Drift Office.

Lots of info to process but very educational. Thanks Bob!

I've got new options to make a decision now...
1. Go FI via Turbo
2. Continue with 2015 STi purchase and sell BRZ
3. Don't go Turbo, just go full tune N/A, get as much hp increase from n/a upgrades.

I've got about 3 months to decide
