Wait a second here Daily I am confused?


Drives: Hyper BLUE
Location: North Bay


03/05/16 - "Hi guys. Just got my BRZ yesterday after almost a year lurking. It's a gorgeous WRB!"

03/06/16 "I finally took my car out of the garage. It seems like they stopped salting the roads for now."

10/07/16 "I plan on daily driving my new FRS, just need a little more umph"

10/09/16 "has anyone heard of someone blowing their motors from JRSC factory tune? The shop I was going to have install the kit told me the tune is the most important, if its too lean it'll blow up"

10/09/16 "NV Auto - Hamilton I'm new in the car scene, and I need a reputable shop to install my JRSC kit"

11/09/16 "Deciding whether I want to spend double the amount for a new 17 brz vs a slightly used 13' brz. How much more reinforcement or durable is the new revised engine?"

With increased complexity comes increased opportunity for failure modes.

If you install a blower, just add it to the list of things that could leave you stranded. That's all Tcoat's saying.

I'm in College (northbay) origin hamilton, WRB was involved in a accident. And in my dream I drive a Hyper blue. Does that satisfy you?

Few things
1 - Tcoat just quoted your posts, so if it's "invalid" information then your posts are invalid information.
2 - This is going nowhere, so I'm locking it.
3 - Warning both of you guys. Daily for calling name. Tcoat, I know what you're trying to do, but give him a break.
