Would you mind taking a pic of the rear view from inside the car? I always wanted to know if the louvres obstruct the view much...

Finally added my Injen short ram intake.
I'm told this leans out the AFR, thus making power and actually improving fuel consumption.

I can't see how it would do that, because now I can't stop getting on the go pedal to hear the engine sing...

Also peeled off a bad plastidip job on the fenders, and did it again - this time I peeled the masking before it dried - looks much better!

Had opticoat + optiglass applied yesterday. Explicit details posted additional pictures HERE



I would definitely have this done again but right when I get the car...paint and dent repair is expensive.

Installed my Phantom Electric Supercharger tonight. No snake oil here -- that thing pulls hard. It's no turbo, but it's also pretty incredible getting full spool down low and on demand. Granted, full spool is just shy of 5psi. Still, can't think of a better way to spend ~$1800.

Excited for the E85 tune coming in the next few weeks.

Got my fog lights in and lip on the FRS Bumper Coming together nicely if I do say so myself.

Gonna make my own splitter as well to go under the lip similair to Jive Breeze's old setup as well as a set of APR mirrors soon!

P.S Sorry for the "toaster-esque" quality of the picture.

Shouldn't you be posting this in the FR-S forum?

Yes it is still badged as a Subaru in the back. Im on the prowl to find a "correct" sized subaru badge on the FRS bumper. Any pointers or suggestions would be greatly appreciated, as I despise the scion badge..
