Been considering the OEM Subaru one, but from what I can tell, that's plug and play on the stock deck only, which kills it for me.

The Caribbean is the absolute best place to be down south. But then again, San Jose del Cabo was beautiful at the beginning of the month. Was 80 during the day and 70ish at night.

Would really like to go back to Jamaica soon, I loved Montego Bay.

Na. You need one. When I got the FRS I missed it almost immediately once the new car excitement wore off.

Is that really as hot as it gets?
Does PNW get humid or is it a dry heat like CA? Cuz I would rather have 100° here then 95° in TX lol

I wouldn't say it's dry heat like CA, but it's also not humid like Florida and that crap.
It's usually pretty comfortable.

CA (Los Angeles) is definitely humid. I figured that out when I moved to the dry desert of AZ from CA. CA is way less humid than FL

It's interesting reading local 86/BRZ fbgp debating on recent 86 EverydayDriver uploaded. Instead of getting involved, I'm just eating popcorn...

I was just using that as an insight into what a good upgrade it is. But if its no in the budget save up and wait to do a more proper one

If I'm on the phone, I would. Hate doing screen shot w pc. It's no troll posts, just one guy wouldn't listen to what other gotta say.

TLDR of that post: EverydayDriver uploaded a vid (which was posted by someone in other thread) was bout tune 86 vs sc 86 (both are local too) and one of the member saying 40whp gain from JRSC kit against header/tune 86 isn't sound right and there must be some leak. Now, owner of sc86 is saying there's no leak.

Lol. Im gonna have to go watch the vid. Sounds like it isnt a very optimized tune there can be so many factors in stuff like that. And im bored today. Raining so hard I doubt anyone comes to the center today

Owner claims, that 86 is stock other than JRSC (w SMOG tune) & lower springs. No aftermarket header or anything PLUS living here kills. (+8,000 elevation)
