Vortech Visconti Tuned on BRZ Limited
This will be my install / information log. My BRZ is the first sports car I have purchased brand new - I figured it should also be my first modded car :)

It's about to be christmas in June for me :D ** May 28th Due to a shipping vs billing address issue had to cancel the ft86speedfactory order. Now out $4755.56 for a few days until the cc charge refunds :mad0260: Ah well - Looks like I will be hopefully getting a 3" Perrin exhaust after all! Thanks to @Pure Automotive I should have parts on order soon :thumbup: ** May 30th Ordered brake kit from Pure Automotive and had Springs installed! http://i.imgur.com/jC5iNuy.jpg ** June 1st CC Charge refunded! Ordered an air vent gauge system today http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=36788 P3CARS AC GAUGE ODBII Y SPLITTER EXTERNAL PRESSURE SENSOR (Fuel and Oil pressure) SILVER TRIM ** June 3rd Completed order with @Pure Automotive for Perrin Over Pipe Perrin Shorty Antenna 2" Borla Unequal Length Exhaust Manifold Invidia Catted Front Pipe Cusco Strut Bar OS Rear Perrin 3 Inch Cat Back Exhaust Crawford Air Oil Separator Black Greddy Carbon Fiber Hood Dampers Cusco Strut Bar OS Front (Brake Cylinder Stopper LHD) Perrin Oil Cooler Koyo Radiator Perrin Transmission Support Bushing Perrin Subaru BRZ / Scion FR-S Engine Mount Kit Beatrush Rear Differential Support Whiteline Rear Positive Shift Bushing Perrin Silicon Radiator Hose Kit ** June 4th Ordered an oil pressure sending kit from FastWRX to support my P3 air vent gauge http://www.fastwrx.com/reoilprsekit.html ** June 6th received the FastWRX Oil Pressure sending kit ** June 7th Did a Dyno run all stock Installed Rotors, Pads, Lines, transmission mount, engine mount, header, overpipe, front high flow catted pipe. ** June 12th Installed my rear cusco bar, hood dampeners, and the crawford aos. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7379/9...bc0c9790_o.jpg ** June 15th Had 50% tint installed Installed OEM toyota mudguards. Why is this a toyota exclusive part?? http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2860/9...cb6b8852_o.jpg ** June 17th Ordered some more parts * FilterMAG SS300 - FilterMAG Oil/Fluid Filtration Magnets * Fumoto F-108 Engine Oil Drain Valve * 6 Liters Motul 0W30 8100 * OEM oil filter * 4 Liters Motul Gear 300 ** June 18th Ordered replica CS Style front lip and side skirts Picked up Oil cooler, front strut bar, diff support bar, and Perrin 3" Catback from @Pure Automotive !! ** June 18th (part two) Installed front cusco strut bar with brake support http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3827/9...b333563b_o.jpg ** June 19th Installed my Perrin 3" Catback system. The car sounds SICK! Thanks @Sekal for helping me install http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3830/9...ea2c34fd_c.jpg ** June 23rd Installed the Beatrush Rear Differential Support. I was expecting an increase of NHV, but to my surprise this actually reduced that. Shifts and acceleration are so smooth now, this is one of the best upgrades you can put on this car. Anyone thinking about upgrading mounts/bushings, you should upgrade all three places. To recap what I have installed: * Perrin Subaru BRZ / Scion FR-S Engine Mount Kit * Perrin Transmission Support Bushing (you could skip this to make things more quiet) * Whiteline Rear Positive Shift Bushing * Beatrush Rear Differential Support ** June 26th Had red out taillights installed at @Pure Automotive http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7305/9...1f6ec39c_c.jpg My Vortech is on a truck somewhere.. Hope it shows up today! My p3 gauges are supposed to show up tomorrow... Looks like this weekend will be install day! ** June 27th Received Vortech, started the install, was up until 2am working on the car. ** June 28th Continued the install at 5pm, called it quits at 4am when the Tune failed to flash onto the car ** June 29th Got a new Tune file from @Visconti , managed to lose the air bleeder screw for the radiator system while burping it :( , ordered a new one from subaru ** July 4th Received the air bleeder screw, finished burping the radiator, drove the car around a lot ;) pictures and more info coming soon Thanks go out to @No Brakes , @nataku , @Sargy , @Sekal for helping install stuff ** More to come! |

This is easier then I was thinking.. Adding to my list of stuff to buy thanks |
Bump for parts update
|
Did you opt for the 3" perrin exhaust since you're going FI? Better gains :)
|
I wasn't aware of that option.. I'll send the vendor an email and see about upgrading the order
