Exhaust ordered and shipped. EcuTek should be ordered today or tomorrow. ALL PARTS SHOULD BE IN BY FRIDAY. Hopefully even installed by Friday, then tuned Saturday.

I would love to drive the balls off of this thing on Saturday. I'd probably just troll the streets for hours. Not street racing of course. Maybe some street sliding though? I kid I kid.

We just made the decision to go ProEFI. This will be the first FR-S/BRZ to go this route!

Innnnnteresting. How does that affect your warranty and your ability to get the car inspected? If I could still get the car inspected, I'd seriously consider the standalone route.

I've seen the other pic! Dave just said I'm not allowed to post it. It reallllllly looks sick though. Turbo placement and air filter placement is RIDICULOUS!
