No, I've got a separate Bosch knock sensor wired in. That way we have two separate sources to check when I'm logging.

Boost at 5000rpm, and indeed, at all rpm's after 2500, is the same 5psi. I should have noted that that boost gauge is measuring in bar, not psi. However, I must freely admit that I've only verified that in 4th and most of 5th, I don't have anywhere to test 6th out to 7400 rpm...

I'm interested in this as well. I'm not sure if anyone is really pushing these cars on the track with FI yet, but I wonder how well the factory cooling system does. The radiator seems thin, around 5/8". The factory forces air through the front pretty well though, but with the IC I wonder if there will be a need for something larger soon.

Paul has stated in this thread AVO Japan is actively tracking the AVO Japan BRZ.

Also, look how fast the speed is increasing keeping in mind its starting from 2500 RPM in 6th gear. I'd say it is increasing comparable to the car in stock form (from 60 mph) in 3rd or 4th gear. No more need to downshift to pass anyone.

Yes, if you listen closely, there is a "sssssss" as the car accelerates.
