Does anyone know anyone working on aftermarket in the midwest? Grimm isn't too far away, but I doubt they would need a test vehicle.

Give them a call or pm...many times places need more than vehicle so they can ensure proper fitment.

If you happen to be part of any internet forums or groups (or your daughter) for the new Scion, please post looking for a volunteer near us in Dexter, Michigan. Development time is about 2 hours and the person will receive the system for free for their time. Otherwise, just check our site every once in a while, hopefully we will find one later this summer. "

So...Anyone live near Dexter Michigan ?

They just opened up a shop that has a dyno in it. Just thought I would share with everyone else.

Haha not likely, Boosted2.0 is the owner, he picked up a White FRS of his own a few days ago.

They don't want a BRZ just to verify fitment of products after they are made on the FRS?

Looking forward to see your "ptuning white" FR-S I just hope there's a way for us to squeeze another 200hp/150whp out of it, cause great handling aside, 200hp on a 2800lb car might be exciting 10 years ago, but 15.5sec quarter mile leaves me wanting a lot more
