GrimmSpeed Intake Before and After OFT Tune + Review - Page 5 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Will this OFT affect the factory warranty? I'm hesitant to screw with the ECU for the next few years, knowing full well that parts are only as good as the tune that goes with them. Looking for some input, thanks!

Yes.

Yes but you can always switch it back to stock tune with the OFT

I love how clean this intake looks inside the engine bay!

Does the intake clear the oil lines for the Perrin and Jackson Racing oil coolers? It's a tight fit with the stock air box and I can't tell from the photos if this air box is bigger than stock...

I'm in the same boat. Did you ever get an answer about this?

Grimmspeed's development thread (an excerpt of which is linked below) addressed this. tl;dr, there are gains.

No, it doesn't. They've shows comparisons between:
- gs intake untuned vs stock box + stock filter untuned
- gs intake untuned vs stock box + high flow filter untuned
- gs intake tuned vs stock box + stock filter untuned

I've looked (unsuccessfully) for:
- gs intake tuned vs stock box + high flow filter tuned

That's what I thought. I followed the development thread from day one. I didn't think I missed it. Thanks!

I can't wait to get my OFT especially since I'm running the GS intake, cat less tomei uel header, catless fp/op, and greddy Evo 3. Hope to make some decent NA power haha!

I'm interested in that comparison as well.

I'm sure there are still gains but is it enough to justify the intake system.

No. It rubs.

Sorry to resurrect this zombie post, but I am planning on running the exact same setup. Any numbers for you end setup?
