The cooling option is a fantastic idea. I'm actually going to start a poll to see how many AT/MT owners we have looking/posting in this thread. I could see the benefits of the cooler, especially for track events.

We don't really work with CF much due to vendors being far and few between, but that's not a bad idea at all! Thank you!

idler pulley kit (100 bucks please).

innovate charger (turbo pulley) upgraded light and better pulley (under 90 bucks)

tower bar like the JDM STI very very similar to what you have currently for the 02-14 sti wrx models. Maybe allow a few options that integrates a brake stopper. OR like the JDM one flexes. And of course the rear one as well to keep the balance on the car.



Lastly........a newly redesigned shift nob. to be blunt. it is boring. if you put your nob and raceseng's next to each other I strongly believe that 99% of the people on the forums would pick raceseng.
In regards to the transmission mount, we already have one in a sense.

The transmission support essentially does the same job as the stiffer transmission mount by reducing how much the transmission can move around. In fact, it may even be quieter than the transmission mount, so that makes it even more beneficial.

Early on we thought about making an entire replacement mount, but found our insert to do the same job without costing as much.

Making an entire mount is definitely not out of the question though!

Also, thank you very much for the input on the other parts/design ideas!

I haven't even thought about that. Thanks!

Just like with the CF, we don't really work with dynamat. However, that's not to say we can't think of another way to create that sound insulation part I do like the rest of the ideas you had in mind as well. I personally would love to see PERRIN calipers



Thank you all for the ideas!! Keep them coming.

We are loving the amount of feedback this thread has generated.

Not a problem, they had them for the A70 but I never got a chance to pick one up.

Another one.. a small unobtrusive 'eyelash' over the headlights to keep the hood from fluttering at speed. Say it filled the gap and directed the air over the hood.

1. A 4-2-1 header.
2. An all aluminum inlet pipe for the Innovate SC ( replacing their plastic one) that would hook up to your 3inch inlet pipe.

Glossy black front bumper garnish that doesn't cost $200-300 like the "JDM" one does.

agreed, although it would require cutting into the fender.

I'm not 100% sure on what you mean. I get the idea, but not sure on how we could make that into a part. I do agree that using tape my actually save you quite a bit of money in that regard. However, that's not to say that I won't have someone look into that as a possibility!

Are you referring to a skid plate type of thing, or just a replacement for the under trays?

In regards to the header, we don't want to make a part that removes a cat from the car; from our experience, the catted headers do not last very long.

For the Innovate inlet, while that is a great idea, I would say that bringing that idea to their attention might be a better way to go! That is part of their kit, and I'm sure they would love the great feedback you can provide.
