I have a stage 1 tune w E85 from Delicious also. I do notice every now and again that the cold starts are a little rough. Brian did give me a heads up when I went back to get the tune re-tweaked after installing the ff kit. I can't imagine what really cold morning starts would be like.

Car is looking sweet, btw

Aw man wtf i have been an IT for 17 years , nobody brings me cookies!!!


Cant wait to see how it looks after thursday!

I really want to see a close up of how that carbon fiber looks on the spoiler. I'm debating that spoiler or the "TRD Style" in CF: http://www.ft86speedfactory.com/trd-...iler-1525.html

Did you will-call it or did you get it shipped? Is it sick as fuck or what?

LMAO You've been at the wrong company for too long then my friend. EVERYTHING is negotiable. "It has to wait till tomorrow" Me: *brings out cookies* Me: "I'll trade you a bump in the queue to today for two cookies"
... most of the time that gets shit done. LOL

Looks super nice. What color is your 86? It'll just be a CF OVERLAY though, not CF. Idk if that bothers you or not.

Mine is whiteout color. I know people (my wife included) think CF on white looks ricey and tacky, but I really like it for some reason. Shrug.

Anyway, I thought it was the same method for applying CF as the "fang" spoiler as I will now call it. Overlay over fiberglass?

If it was 100% solid CF I would expect it to be $600+

That's comforting it's not just me.
I switched back to 91 on Weds because I knew I was going to be doing so much driving. She sat for over a full day and the next cold start was perfectly fine and smooth. Figured it had to be the fuel. As long as Lucy is aiight, I'm good. I'll keep her on 91 through the weekend (road trip this weekend to see family with the bf, 2.5 hours one way) then switch her back over to 85 as soon as we get back. I can definitely tell the difference between the 85 and the 91 though.

Thank you! Tail lights and spoiler return to stock on 4/4 so hopefully shortly after that I'll have them. Then the rest should be done on Thursday. Pretty excited.

Neither, local dude was selling his. Didnt have to wait, talked to him at like 2030, picked it up at 2200.

Going to have to take it in to get the bottom side cleaned up/painted though.

You have to get it re-tuned to go to 91 right? And then flashed again to go back to e85?

Fang spoiler is an excellent way to put it! I approve. LOL. It is. I just know some people are super picky with it.
I don't think I've seen an 86 with whiteout, just the pearl-white ish. Post a pic!

No, it's flexfuel tuned. I put in what I want and it calibrates accordingly. 0 work required. That's the beauty of it. I can take pics of the modules later under the hood. It's pretty cool
