I'm in a similar position. Currently have the MPSS and love them, but I only got about 15k miles from them. And in central Texas it's getting cooler and wetter, so I'd like to go with an A/S tire...

I'm interested in the SL Speaker upgrade.

I assume the 4" rears add more clarity and depth to the rear sound stage?

For the fronts, how much of an improvement is it going back to a 3-way system...

No, the 400CF bypasses the in-dash mids because new door speakers are included. The 400+ only includes new tweeters and keeps the in-dash mids and factory door speakers.

Seems like these would be redundant with the whiteline inserts wouldn't they? Or at least do the same thing at the whiteline inserts plus more (lateral movement).

So would these rear Spoon collars be better or worse than the Whiteline bushing set? Seems like they'd be better if they help vertically and horizontally.

According to the FB post bfsnail posted yes, 91 octane.

It's not much more power than the OFT300 kit. OFT300 dynos on their website show 278 hp and 210 lb-ft. So maybe 10 hp and 20 lb-ft more...

Hmm, hadn't considered going to a smaller tire. Why would you recommend going a size smaller? Keep in mind this is just my DD with a lot of time spent at 70+ mph and no track time currently.

2015 Series.Blue BRZ

Definitely a different driving experience in the BRZ. This engine likes to rev, and the power comes in the 4500-7000 rpm range. 6th gear at 80 mph is about 3500 rpm. Truth be told I only use 5th...

Mine were the same way. It was a major PITA getting them out. Pick up a few extra as they'll be ruined when you take them out, but they come out.

What size tires do you plan to run? Also, where did you purchase them? Having a hard time finding them online and everything I've found shows the narrowest to be 8.5, not the 7.5 you got.

Yeah from what I've seen if you have experience with car interiors it's pretty easy. With the Reference system and the new doors speakers it'll take a bit longer than the 400+ that Haeb installed.
