If you could please add the Company name
Fitbit stock at their IPO. Then wait 3 months and cash out with $2500+ so I can buy more stuff.

... in fact this is what I'm doing, paying off the BRZ 2 years early this week.

Dude that's like 25,000 extra horsepower (since the going rate is about 25 HP per sticker). Are you sure your Prius tires can handle that, or did you already install a prototype suction system underneath for more traction?

Track it twice
Tires/camber bolts/brake pads/fluid
Track it more if you have any leftovers

Do NOT add more power.

No need for it unless you can fully handle the car at the limit with the stock power.
