Function > Form. And considering I'm getting pipes made here in a few days. The muffler is not going back on.

You want to make me a better looking heat shield? Be my guest.

I already have an exhaust but if anyone needs a hand with their muffler delete I have done it on a few old muscle cars and would be glad to help make a heat shield or wrap pipes to displace the heat.

With that I don't see the BRZ being in the sub 30K range anymore. But it's awesome none the least.

My vote still falls on supercharger more consistent no lag and they seem to be more durable in harsh climates over time. But a supercharger does cost more and cars manufactured with them normally don't have a price tag under 40k in the last few years.
