Everyone and their grandmother will be making an intake and exhaust for this car. Maybe things that are a bit less common that could give a bit more power while not compromising the daily driving aspects would be nice.

AERO parts with direct fit. No universal crap that you have to modify. I want plug n play items.

This please! One other suggestion is to get some Recaros/Bride seats in stock that are able to fold down. I'm pretty set on getting the ASM Recaros

Also keep FRS items in stock as much as possible.

Holy ballz! That's a flat torque curve! Best 2.0L turbo 4 cylinder ever? Maybe a turbo wouldn't be so bad in the BRZ/FR-S/86 after all. So maybe we'll see this in the STI version? But it might even be too much power - it could take it from being a fun car to a scary car. :P

Identify where the weak links are in this car when tracking. Any oil or fuel starvation issues? Any suspension joints, links, etc that needs to be stiffened? Thanks.

Brilliant idea ft86! I'm also curious how much abuse the stock braking system can withstand.
