We just picked up our new shop car, a 2013 Whiteout FR-S with 60 miles on it. We've got big plans for this car so stay tuned for updates. We will be slowly transforming this car from stock to an all out track car. We will have build threads in the FI and Chassis sections as we progress.
We've already made some steering rack bushings and a simple intake (we just couldn't leave it alone). We have a few days of evaluation to do on the dyno and the lift but we should start making some major progress shortly.

We did a baseline on our AWD Superflow Dyno. One thing we noted both driving these and running them on the dyno is the very choppy feel. The dyno graphs I've seen in person and online all seem to confirm a rough running condition. We will be working to try and solve that ASAP.
Here's what we came up with for the intake:
This is what the velocity stack looks like under the filter. We build all our parts in house on our Bluco jig table.
We will be making a lot of solid bushings but we figured we would start with the ones most directly connected to the steering feel.
