And that's why I want MOOOOO POOOWWWWEEEERRR!

It seems normal now that I've been driving a boosted FRS for awhile...

Yes, that's actually what I'm thinking. It used to be sluggish at low RPM for sure, as all small NA engines, but it feels like now it's a bit more affected. Though that might be just my higher expectations - I hoped the low RPM performance to be improved a bit as well - from some point, probably right around 2000 RPM the boost should already be noticeable, so I wouldn't need to downshift that much. But of course just because at the higher RPM it's now much more power, it might be too contrasting at the low range. It would be interesting now to drive the stock FRS/BRZ back-to-back with mine, to really feel how it was before.

But other than that, I'm happy - from around 3000 RPM it really pulls!
This is definitely what this car was missing.

Well, the pulley hasn't been changed, if that's what you're asking.... yet, but we've been playing with other supporting mods. Tomei header review will be coming in a few weeks.

+1 for tomei header review. Just ordered the EL.

Here's some numbers from a kit we just put in the other day with the oil cooler, blue is 93 octane, red is e50:



I have to say fitment is SUPER on this kit. It is nice to not have everything mate up perfectly from the start. Each kit might have its merits, but installing one of these is a pleasure.

Is that a dynojet or mustang dyno? Numbers look good. That particular car have any exhaust mods?

Yup, dynojet. JDL header, ARK cat back (sounds awesome!)

good numbers Mike
a bit unrelated to the topic but that Rotrex supercharged MX-5 that you recently posted on Miata forum looks really good too .. a 300whp Miata should be fun to drive
that torque curve man ..wow..haha
