Long overdue update.

Testing a new 100 octane tune, hit 14.5 PSI.

Zero to 115 Acceleration on 100 octane

En route to Laguna Seca, such a gorgeous drive up there.

It rained the first 3 sessions which wasn't any fun.

February 28th, 2015 Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca.

4th to 5th gear fly by on the way home from MRLS.

Morning drive to Chuckwalla Valley Raceway with 86 CUP.

March 29th, 2015 Chuckwalla Valley Raceway with 86 CUP. This was my first time at this track, it was very challenging to learn the lines here.

April 12th, 2015 Buttonwillow with 86 CUP.

[ame]http://youtu.be/kiOCkYSNNwk[/ame]

Decided on new brake setup. AP Racing Sprint kit with Project Mu 999 pads.

Added this downpipe muffler thanks to MrC at PTuning for helping me out here. My hopes was to pass the DB limit at MRLS - I think I triggered the sound limit once by 3 DB or something like that, not bad.

Finally upgraded to a better oil for the track; Motul 300V.

MRLS again, and rain, again.

Photo shoot with all of the 86 CUP participants.

Traded in the 2015 WRX for a new twin; meet BRZ #2.

Decided to wrap her in Charcoal Matte Metallic

More updates soon :-)

Is this a swap parts to new and convert old to stock to sell?

jchudson13 · 07-10-2015, 02:14 PM

So what are you going to do with this thread now that your swapping the turbo over? Lol just leave it and continue with progress of the other, or make a new thread?

BlueSky · 07-10-2015, 02:36 PM

you going to build the block of the old one?

Thread will apply to both cars. As for the old car, still undecided on the end goal of this car. There will be work done to the motor for sure.

BRZ RN · 12-10-2015, 08:41 AM

great thread, how much did you save having them installed by yourself?

rb6freak · 12-24-2016, 12:32 AM

Long overdue update! I've swapped the turbo over to BRZ #2 and I'm now working on upgrading my PTuning turbo kit to the V2 components. Most notably; the GTX2867R upgrade!

These two videos talk about the reasoning of switching to another BRZ and how the kit has held up over 30,000 miles. I also have some other things to complete in time besides the turbo upgrade like putting on my AP Racing Sprint breaks up front as well as some other minor changes. Stay tuned!

Enjoyed the videos, glad to see things are holding up well. I have experienced the same "minor" issues with the anti roll bar bushing and turbo elbow. Fortunately Ptuning has some solutions they make available for us.

Look forward to the gt28 result, I have been considering this as well.
Are the new overpipes lighter or heavier than the V1?

They are certainly thicker and the V1. I beleive they are heavier but I don't have a scale to measure. I'm good with thicker/heavier to trap in that heat. The cobra intake coupler and the new overpipe have great clearance according to PTuning so I'm pumped about that.
