Congrats on the install, good to see all that power means something, but we must cast a sarcastic frown at you for street racing and endangering the lives of others and your supercharged BRZ. :-(

I do apologize. I am not the type that usually does reckless acts such as this but with new power its almost impossible to not test it against something.

I'm interested to see how different it is VS just the E85 tune. Obviously it's more powerful, but I would love to see first hand how different.

This, and don't drill near the edges of a particular area. Try to drill more towards the middle.
