Wasn't Club4AG Moto Miwa (Moto-P on this board) quoted somewhere as saying the 5 hp difference was actually closer to 20 HP? Turns out he probably wasn't exaggerating at all.

This is just one data point, I wouldn't worry about it too much. As more people start doing comparisons it will become more clear how much difference there is between the cars.

Yes.

I wonder, will the MY17 have similar gains with bolt ons as pre 2017? For example, will Header 'A' give the same gains on both vehicles? Or is this pretty much as good as it gets with out going FI?

now what would be interesting and funny, in some ways and hopefully this won't happen.
but if you put an 86 on the dyno and it gives something different than the BRZ.

it wont happen but if it did, well I'm sure hell will break lose hahaha

These pulls were done in 5th gear.

The factory tune is definitely way more aggressive on the MY17.

I am interested in the same thing, specifically for 2nd gear since we autocross primarily in 2nd. I will let you know soon My '17 BRZ is almost broken in and will be able figure it out, at least, in the lower gears.

Was there any other gearing changes other than the FD?
