I also make a practice of not going over 1/4 throttle when under 3k unless I downshift. The car has felt really good, so I’m leaving it for now. I did just add a Forester oil cooler and a PCV catch can. So I feel more confident when pushing it a bit now.

Again, thank you all for the replies!
All the best.
Throttle pedal mapping is also key as pressing quarter throttle can give you all the torque if they have mapped it that way. The new GR 86 is supposed to go WOT on half throttle while BRZ is mapped linearly.

Oil cooler is a safety add but is primarily useful only for track days as on public roads, you rarely overheat the car and hence the oil.

Over the next few months do let us know how much your oil catch can collects!
