How long until you and Anastasia are reunited? Hopefully not too long. Save travels!
The longer I'm in Portland the more money I make... lol. But I do miss her. I'm going to come home either the first week of October or sometime in November. If I can stay up here until November I can hit @PERRIN up and buy all kinds of stuff without paying tax on it, hopefully... Oregon doesn't have sales tax!!! #awesomeforme

Then I can just ship all the stuff I buy from them back home and have it waiting for me. I'll just have the perrin stuff installed when the turbo is being put on.

I have talked to a couple of guys at MAINSTREAM PERFORMANCE in Dallas, Ga. Has anyone had any work or knows of anyone who has had work done by these guys? I spoke with James, he seems like a pretty cool guy. I was going to let them do my Turbo.

It would be SOO awesome to come home and...
1) Turbo put on
2) bodykit installed
3) exhaust put on
4) Stereo system installed
5) tint installed
6) Rims and springs and all support brace arms installed
7) Last but certainly not least.... WATCH THE PANTIES COME OFF!!!

No offense to the moderators, thats just how I image my car once my shopping cart is bought and installed...

I've never heard of Mainstream but you may want to follow up with @pixel67 and @Steve@TSM about a FA20club turbo kit being installed at TopSpeed Motorsports in Alpharetta. I know TSM have a BRZ shop car that they plan to go boosted with and they have a really good reputation with forced induction builds for GT-R's, Audis, Lambos, Porsches, and Ferraris in the metro area. They do top notch work.

I had a fantastic day instructing and driving at Atlanta Motorsports Park yesterday with Hooked on Driving! @Stevo22 has a SWP BRZ and we were paired up with me as his instructor. He got some action shots of our cars on track so hopefully he will post them when he gets a chance.


The Road Wrap did a great job of keeping the clag and other debris from messing up the paint.
Peeled right off when I got home and left no residue. Great product!


We had perfect weather all day.

The oil cooler performed just as expected and the car felt strong all day despite the 87 degree ambient temps! The Club Racer pads were also excellent and coupled with the titanium shims and cooling kit I had zero fade with threshold braking into every corner that required it.


The titanium shims turned a nice gold color from the heat.

My first time with HoD was a great success. I really liked the people and the atmosphere and I'll definitely be doing more events with them in the future.

I drove up with a full tank plus 10 gallons of E85 and made it home with a 1/8 tank left!

Videos are uploading now

EDIT: Highlights posted here

Footage from yesterday at AMP is ready. Turned out pretty good with the external mic clipped in the glove box. You can barely hear my folded up schedule printout shuffling side to side. I'll leave it empty next time

87 degree ambient temps, running in group X with Hooked on Driving. So much fun!

Congrats on the awesome driving and it was a pleasure riding with you. The stock tires on your car surprised me by how grippy they were!

Southeast 86 club tried to get a track day together but the club's disorganization and lack of promotional effort resulted in the event failing before getting more than 5 people to commit.

Looks like a pretty fun track, a bit more power might be nice there. I have a weekend at VIR in November. First time with this car.

I was having a hard time not laughing everytime I heard the paper move
