I haven't had anything BUT excellent customer service from them. I would check by calling them. Could possibly be email problems. I don't know.

been about a week since install + tune and everything is going well. Figured id share my thoughts. Aside from the extra power and noise, you cannot tell this car apart from a stock frs/brz. impressed how smooth everything is.

The power is good at 250 (for now) but not great. Using my p3 gauge timer, car easily went 0-100kph in 5 seconds flat. Car feels stock ish from 3000 to 4500 but takes off after 5000. It can get you in trouble but not kill you. Ideally (for me personally) another 75whp/50tq would "perfect" haha

power mods are: jrsc + jr oil cooler, pt tuning el header, nameless 2.5" downpipe + overpipe.

future mods: clutch, ~12psi, pulley upgrade, fuel pump, injectors

dyno graph below (baseline was under or right at 150whp/125tq but on a different day)

These type of posts make me happy. 😊😊😊😊

Also have you taken your now supercharged car to any canyons/back roads? I would love to hear your thoughts on how the car handles and feels!

Handles the same on the street. Cant notice the extra weight and i have yet to redo the corner balance. Shifting feels better between 1-2-3. Going to the track friday. Will probably need to upgrade brakes this wekeend or at least pads and fluid.

Overall very happy. Shop said install went perfect. They said it was the best fitting kit they have done on the brz and they have done 3-4 different set ups.

Of course! Might wait it out until the spring. In 2 months its going to be winter weather here so brz goes into hibernation. Hopefully my tires dont turn into slicks before then. Will for sure need a rear set by next summer.

If you are going to drop the JRSC and flex fuel kit at the same time. Get use to that first. I felt that after all said and done. If I was not in CA, I would than do headers. And than a new clutch.

Not sure if you're responding to me, but I do have headers (JDL UEL), and catted Nameless front-mid combo. Back when I ran a 500HP Spec.B I had a clutch that could hold crazy power but was HEAVY as ***k. I was too cheap to go twin plate at the time, not so much now, but kinda think it might me overkill for this application.

The flywheel is purely personal preference. I prefer a lighter flywheel and will take the NVH for increased response, but most people prefer a slightly heavier (but lighter than stock) for a nice balance.

We will be using the ACT in our car
