Took her to Fresh Meet in NJ on Sunday. Met some cool people and got a lot of good mod ideas. Talked to a guy from Boston at the scion racing booth with a really nice CF hood. Apparently it's still being developed but its called the Black Ops hood. Anyone heard of it?

Got a 4 wheel alignment yesterday. I hit a nasty pothole Friday afternoon. She was pulling a little bit to the right. Name:  uploadfromtaptalk1398704862835.jpg

second that.^^^^^^ that trunk and exhaust are awesome. I'm still debating between that trunk or an APR wing (more functionality for the track).

Installed O.F.T. - WOW !

Best mod to date, turns it into a totally different car, reduced torque dip as expected, but the quickness to high revs and accceleration increase was very impressive.

Also smoother idle , more exhaust burble , cleaner exhaust sound.

Best bang for the buck mod available IMHO.

I've had this problem when I received my car from the dealer. Before removing fuses check inside the trunk for an on/off switch (I believe its on the left side) put the switch in the on position and the trunk actuator should work now. If thats not the problem the you can check the fuses.

Found a well lit parking lot that is completely empty and I drifted around the light posts for a good 30 minutes

I'm interested in doing the same. What tune are you running? (Stage 1, etc.?) How easy was it to set up? What octane gas are you using?

I have TRD intake and Magnaflow catbacks using 91 octane which calls for stage one map .

As soon as my headers arrive, I'll use stage two map.

About 15 minutes to set up - super easy.
Check with Vishnu web site support as to any d/l updates required before use.

1 - Connect O.F.T. to car, read and store original stock map (To flash back for smog cops or dealer warranty repair).
2 - Connect O.F.T. to internet connection , d/l both maps (or more if planning supercharger etc.).
3 - Connect O.F.T. to car, install new map.

4 - Enjoy a brand new, faster and smoother engine, and exhaust !
Ignore the instant erection - KEEP YOUR HANDS ON THE WHEEL !

The provided maps are different (for different regions, auto trans vs. manual trans, UEL vs. EL headers etc.). Just d/l and use the ones appropriate for your car set up. When connected to the car, close the doors and make sure NOTHING is on. Follow directions on the screen exactly. After starting car with the new map - do not step on the gas pedal for a few minutes.

For $195 Vishnu will allow you to send them your data logs (up to 7 times I think) for finer tuning of your map for you to d/l. A couple of hot laps at the track or a dyno run is enough for a data log. I wouldn't risk tuning yourself unless you were an expert tuner.

Can someone tell me what an "O.F.T" is? I'm guessing its some kind of ecu tuning or something like that....
