Eventually I do want to take it to dynotronics to get it Dyno tuned to get the most out of it, but 255whp is a good starting point and that's on a completely stock car, with a full exhaust you're looking at a bit more to start with as well.

Ok we got our first local supercharger install. Nice! I can't wait to see and hear this bad boy\girl! LOL

If any of you have not gotten a Ecutek tune yet. Seek out Dynotronics. They are top notch!

Has anybody done the backup camera install on the BRZ? I got the pass through harness from SVXdc. I just need to get the camera and do the install.

Why? Modding the car doesn't void the warranty. Thats to include the tune....they can't see it.

It is, because the only time you car isn't covered under warranty work is when the aftermarket part causes the problem. I can atest to that. MY AEM intake Blew some stuff up, I paid $350 to get it fixed. Got the car back and it decided to blow up again. (over exagerating the blow up part) but the second time it was wires and fuse related stuff so they didn't charge me a dime. had my car for a week but I didn't get charged jack. Even saw the ECUTEK box in the backseat.

Ecutek makes you car come alive! Throttle response is off the hinges. You can have the redline raised too. This is on the 93 octane map. If you are feeling froggy you can pay and go with the E85 map. I hear that is a beast.
