Or is this going to be a concern for me that I need to address ASAP along with the installation of the kit because the map for cars with high-flow cats won't be available when the kit is released?

I was planning on using AVO's base map for Stage 1 since your reputation is very good, so I would prefer not having to go to a local third party tuner to get my own 'tweaked' base map

I learned about boost creep from my stage 2+ OBXT. I needed a tune for most power mods because of boost creep on that EJ25T. I don't know why I thought the BRZ once turboed would be any different!
The BRZ/FR-S isn't being tuned out to 18-24psi though. Boost creep is happening at the higher pressures on the old Impreza's, yes, but they are being run at much more boost.

For people that buy a kit directly through us, we can adjust the base map. But the further you get away from the stage 1 hardware, the more possibility you'll need tweaking to the map to keep up with those changes.
