@FullBlown Turbo! That's my route... by the end of the year.

By bike to you mean motorcycle or bicycle? (and yes, you can spend that much on either)

If motorcycle, I'd go that route, mainly because I miss my Honda 919 I sold to buy the FR-S. Eventually I may get a SC but not right now because I'm happy with the car as is.

Of course, I wouldn't do any of this unless the car is paid off. I'm funny that way.

Ouch poor BRZ hope everyone involved is ok! Hate GA drivers.. and I also bought my car from Stivers.

I might consider a SC or TC after my warranty dies. I would probably need to drive cars with them installed to see if I liked it. I've never owned a FI car before, but I have driven a few, and I am not a huge fan of the infamous turbo "lag".
