Not sure about this gen BRZ, but many cars use the secondary O2 sensor (post-cat) to tune LTFTs. Running a defouler is going to affect that.

I find that hard to believe. It's a nearly straight through 2.5" exhaust.

Their header on the other hand has been shown to be restrictive on the FA24.

It’s the tires and the fact that the car has essentially no sound deadening. I too was shocked. There’s a thread in the 2nd gen BRZ subforum.

The Tomei 80 is one of the loudest exhausts you could possibly buy. If you’re asking these questions, the Tomei 80 isn’t right.

There are other more palatable single exhausts, like the HKS V2 or...

Here's another--I think it sounds really good, but I have no idea what headers or a front pipe would do to the tone.

The gearbox is physically moving as G-forces load up, which is likely part of the issue. I'm not sure a short shifter would fix this, but I do think a stiffer trans mount would.

As pointed out above, the more substantive distinction here is: Are you going to be the first owner? Or is the car technically "used"?

I’m really disappointed that the 18x8.5 et44 w/ 245-35-18s didn’t work. That’s by no means an “aggressive” fitment, and you’re not even using 200TW (read: wide) tires.
