That looks awesome!!!! But it looks like once you even free rev the engine that it is going to bounce off your strut tower brace. I can't imagine what it would do to it under load. I think you need a new brace.

I'm pretty sure that's gonna make your car run all weird allowing unmetered air into the engine.

Today I drove my vehicle around in an immature fashion. I also drove a sorted 993 and a Dinan tuned 135i, just for comparative purposes. Conclusions: my car is comparatively slow, sounds like shit compared to the other two, but is easily 85-90% as much fun.

I think with a couple of pretty minor suspension and drivetrain tweaks, plus a decent exhaust, this car is going to be a really sick road car. I must confess that I love the Prius tyres-- its just so much fun making them squeal at every stop-sign. I always feel like I'm driving my BRZ like a child, which puts a grin on my face. I love this car.

Still waiting on my P&L header + exhaust. If the BRZ has taught me anything...it's that patience=quality.

Pretty sure that sound you're hearing is an exhaust leak...
