How does that system sound? I was thinking about replacing my HKS with it.

I'm really digging it. It's solid, no rasp, good deep tones that are nice and throaty with none of that high pitch ping at all. I had the injen on alone and got used to that in the cab so once the front pipe and exhaust were on I felt it was a perfect match. The fitment was spot on too. I was on the fence about the titanium tips but once on it was a no brainer with the wrb. (sexy all around)
breathes great and feels a bit lighter and I feel like it has rounded the power band out a bit so its smooth and not as choppy but I've only had the exhaust a few days now.
Once the uel headers are on and tune done I may dyno just to see where any improvements went. I'm pretty sure it will keep me smiling and grab extra looks from the sound alone.
Much thanks to Brady @Pure Automotive for the awesome ideas and hard work.

Same thing happened to me but i was avoiding a tool box. Ended up getting my car fixed nothing was bad alignments great so I went and ordered some new rims very aggressive staggered set up, black two-piece lug nuts and hancock v12 evo with FAT rear tires. Will post pictures when done next Friday.

How bad was your brace bent? Mine wasnt bent at all and I bent both rims and blew out both tires on the passenger side.

Put on the Beat Sonic shark fin for the brz (frs version small due to no gps) on with carbon wrap monday, at first it looked great in my eyes but after a few day it just looked oversized for the car. Sooooo I ripped that baby off today might just go with a short one from perrin.

rim was fine but the control arm was twisted and bent. I just got it back today lucky nothing else was messed up its aligned perfect and im glad its back on the road. Total was $1200 for parts and labor with an alignment.

Your crazy. Looked great.

Damn wonder how it messed up the CA bit not the rim. Maybe i got lucky cause I was buying new rims that day. A sign maybe?

I felt exactly the same way and went with a Perrin 2" antenna as well. I'm very happy with it, it feels surprisingly solid and well made (was expecting something much cheaper).
