I'm looking to go with the Kraftwerks C38 Supercharger, to get as much HP as I can get, but I am still wavering a bit as I still have 4 years left on my warranty. I just read another post about someone's great feedback on the OFT and I am wondering if I should just go this route and make other performance upgrades in the meantime (exhaust, suspension, etc.) until closer to my warranty running out.

Oh, but the boost is so tempting

I have to say the writing process was very simple and drama free. Quicker than I thought too.

I don't have a header (yet) so I ran the Stage 1 tune with just a catback exhaust and I must say there are some great improvements.

I know some of the others mentioned this but idle is so much smoother now, no rpm wobbles and just smooth, buttery smooth, like so smooth. lol

Even my wife noticed it and said "wow feels like a more premium car" lol

Reverse and 1st gear is going to take me a few days to get used to as the feel of the car has changed. Not in a bad way and much more refined feel.

Two best traits of the OFT for me was these two...

1. Torque dip is pretty much gone which by itself is worth it imo. I'm sure I'll probably get used to how linear the pwr delivery is now but damn I can't believe how much smoother the power comes on now.
2. Throttle response. Its pretty immediate now. VERY different than stock tune. Great to feel that the car is really maximizing what little power it has and gets on it right away.

I can't wait to see how different she feels at my next autox event

I email Shiv a few times and the response times were fantastic! Very impressed and super nice guy, answered my questions and made me feel confident in my choice to go with these guys.

Now I'm eyeing that Header... lol save some funds

If you have 500$ buy this. #1 mod anyone should do on their FRS/BRZ hands down!
