I was thinking about that, and based on previous experience, no - I would crave the extra power and the car would be ruined for me where I spend 80% of my driving time. I just posted somewhere how FRUSTRATING. It is driving rentals around KZN and the Cape on business, while my drivers car is at home....:

Looks like mine, except for the "lip" - I was thinking of getting one, but will only if it it is functional. As an Areo Eng, I know that it 'could' reduce drag, but does it actually?

That being said, I have also fitted the chrome bits in the 'vents' which are not functional

Agree, but when you get back and jump into the 86, the doors to heaven open up

I' sitting at the airport, in trouble because when I called my wife after being away for 4 days, I'm missing the BRZ more than I'm missing her and the kids

I hope I can have a little drive when I get home

If you guys are interested in upgrading the ECU, which I believe should always be the first modification to keep everything running in harmony , I'd love for you guys to check out the V-Tune Calibration from Visconti Tuning. @Ryan86 was nice enough to start a thread called Visconti (click here to jump to it). I've posted a lot of information about it in that thread.

Intakes and Exhausts are great upgrades, but if you want an instant kick in the pants, you should really check out what we have to offer! And if you're really serious about making MUCH bigger power, we're running a HUGE sale for the month of April on our Vortech ProCharger kits. You do not need upgraded intake or exhaust to run this kit. Plus all kits are 15% off for this month only! Click the link in my signature for more details, or feel free to PM me! Thanks guys!

My daughter in the UK got me a GT86 rear badge about a month ago, and after 3+ weeks in the mail, it's eventually popped out of the SAPO quagmire today.
Whoopee!! I'd almost given up on it...
