We all know its the waste gate, but its the fluttering that's weird. Fullblown uses an external waste gate too, but its much smoother...

Its not as smooth because its not setup correctly. Springs have to be adjusted.

I agree. Absolutely love that colour. Although I didn't go BRZ because it was about a 4 month difference in wait and I was able to get a grand off the FR-S for the grad discount and didn't qualify for that for the BRZ. Oh well. I'm not about to sell and re-buy essentially the same car because of the colour. At least that's what I keep telling myself.

Welcome to Canada?
The dealership never got one that wasn't already sold up until the past couple months. They have one sitting out front now but for the longest time they didn't even have a demo that anyone could drive.

Guys Im from down under (Australia) and I have been having great success with my tune with Visconti. I have done the work 100% in my own garage include Turbo fitting and tuning. John has helped me thru the tuning and data logging process and with a bit of patience it is a great result. The power improvement and drivability benefits over the standard AVO tune was evident when I had a drive with my friend yesterday with a stock AVO kit. I definitely noticed more popping and irregular noises from his car and lack of acceleration compared to my car both on the standard wastegate pressure (read under 5psi) As I have had the car on the road for like 2 or 3 days I havent seen a dyno yet to give you guys some power.

Once again can't thank John highly enough with his tuning and customer service, I really wish the people in my country offered the same customer service.

John its time to wire up the Greddy Profec Boost controller and wind the boost up buddy
