Tried the Virtual Dyno Android app- 4th gear pull from 4k up to 7.4k on the highway. Its Florida.... at 7.4k rpms in 4th gear, I was getting passed so CTFO. A Durango wanted to race.

Every bump in the road screws up this torque curve but if you read around the spikes, my results were in line with other results I've seen. I didn't get a screenshot and the log files it saved are all screwed up. This app is pretty rough. It's Virtual Dyno by Brad Barnhill.

I've got a Weapon R intake, Unichip (Weapon R, all catb, fuel - 93 tune), second cat delete and Berk muffler delete. VD says I'm putting down in the low 180's peak HP (at around 7100 rpm), almost 150 peak Tq.

It's hard to read the results because there's no smoothing and there's no perfectly flat road around. But after a few runs I got enough data to get an idea of what I'm putting down. The car feels a lot better with Unichip.

This past week I used the 87 Weapon R tune and I got the best MPG I've ever seen with this car bit i disn't set the avg mpg before using the 87 tune- but even so I ended the week at over 32 mpg- mixed 93 and 87 tunes overy the week. With a 93 tune though.... not so good! I'm going to do some testing this week and get numbers. I reset the avg mpg and I'm using the 93 tune now and I'm getting 26 mpg so far, but I that's only about 1/4 tank.

Decided to grab a lip, skirt and apron from Bayson R. The aprons and skirts fits 99% perfectly, perfectly happy with them. It looks like I'm however going to have to work on the lip to get it fit. Probably will tackle that tonight.

Still gotta decide how/if I'm going to paint the side skirts.

The black definitely looks weird. Maybe with a black lip it wouldn't

I agree which is why I have a black lip in my house. Gonna try to slap that on tonight after work. Hoping it won't be a big PIA to get it to fit.

Installed a Dashcam today. Ran the cable along the roof liner, down the pillar and into the glovebox connecting to the 12v socket. Real easy install.

What dash cam did you buy? I've been casually looking at these since getting my FR-S last week, given how absolutely stupid drivers and pedestrians are in my area of Toronto...

It's a Gator DVR189. It's one I picked up here in Australia from an auto shop. Given your in Toronto you could have different cameras. I suggest having a look around at reviews of different cameras, perhaps seeing if the shop will let you look at one in the store and check out the quality etc. Also! Check the length of the 12v charging cable. If you want a clean install that goes along the roof liner and pillar and into your glovebox make sure it's Altleast 2.5m long. Sorry I wasn't too much help with what to go for.
