I posted it above. Honestly, don't focus on the number here as every Dyno will differ. What is more interesting to see is a 30whp peak increase from before and any additional area under the curve. Given the mods I have you can expect to have a similar percentage increase on any other dyno.

I like this car so much so that I feel like I don't drive enough everyday. This is my daily car and I drive about 40 miles a day on 98% freeways. I like when other BRZ guys either honk at you or looking at you. I was waiting at the left turn near Kroger at Houston, and another BRZ was starring at my car (older model may be FRZ). I was getting back aches with my Honda Pilot and not in this one. After 6 months, I am driving almost 95% accurate. Next in the list is the rev match, I do but not as fluent as your PRO guys.

Took the clutch out. Did a hard launch this morning and there was no wheel spin. Got a year out of the stock clutch on the AVO turbo. Feel lucky about that. Ordering a new one today.

Is it easy to install a new clutch and how long a new clutch lasts? I was told dealers charge about $1,000 with labor and parts, is that true? TIA

Never done a clutch replacement on a BRZ, But from what I see the transmission should drop out easily. Will do a better clutch fork and flywheel at the same time. I will probably have $1k just in parts. Going to do a stage 2 rated at 350tq. That one should last a while.

Paid it off.
Stick to a plan, and it will "pay off"

Installed an LED dome light and hood dampers. JDM side markers going on once I get the wiring squared away for the new horns that are sitting in the garage.

How to prevent scratching front lip. Yesterday, while parking at local grocery store I went too front and hit the concrete flooring of the store. Now I park far away.
