Got a sweet package in the mail from FT86speedfactory (literally since there was free candy inside), my Raceseng Sphereology weighted shift knob, definitely helps with the effort rowing the gears but a tiny bit large for my taste. Still on the fence about keeping it.

Finished up the Brembo GT BBK front and rear install. Front was super easy, rear wasn't so bad but you do have to cut the dust shield and grind a little bit of the knuckle to get the bracket seated correctly. Not Brembo's fault, it's due to casting variations of the knuckle from the factory.

Not sure, I bought a 3x6 ft roll of it a while back from EBay. Would it say 3M on the back?

How do you think the supercharger has affected the overall "feel" of the car? Some people have said that it's not as playful and is heavy and I even read of one guy reverting back to NA. Same goes for the tires. Do you think the huge increase in grip has significantly decreased the level of fun? Trying to figure out which direction I would like to go with my own.
