Interested in hearing it. You sounded pretty good pulling away from C&C with just the header.

Have you installed the oil cooler yet?

I approve the sound quality! If I had been wearing any panties that day they would've dropped!

the exhaust will get 5x louder when you have the SC kit installed.

Good sound note tho

** June 23rd
Installed the Beatrush Rear Differential Support. I was expecting an increase of NHV, but to my surprise this actually reduced that.

Shifts and acceleration are so smooth now, this is one of the best upgrades you can put on this car.

Anyone thinking about upgrading mounts/bushings, you should upgrade all three places.

To recap what I have installed:
* Perrin Subaru BRZ / Scion FR-S Engine Mount Kit
* Perrin Transmission Support Bushing (you could skip this to make things more quiet)
* Whiteline Rear Positive Shift Bushing
* Beatrush Rear Differential Support

Nice.
I just installed the Visconti Vortech Supercharger too. I am thinking to install the crawford AOS. Would you mind posting pictures how to route the hoses, as Vortech kit has already installed one way breather hose and also rerouted the intake hose.
