But I thought the '17 MT off mode turned off the e-diff (that's what Subaru's docs say). So you'd just be disabling EBD then?

I'm loving all the information here! I had a quick question. I ordered the 17 BRZ with performance pack and got a perrin cat back for a black friday sale. I saw a post that had the attached image saying that there might be problems with exhaust fitment. Have you noticed anything like that on yours?

No, but I'm not using a production exhaust either...

I'll be back on the stock catback soon anyways; I don't need the extra noise

I think the fitment issues are specific to the revised diffuser area on the 86 bumper. I don't think it affects the BRZ since it uses the same bumper as the 13-16.
