Yeah, I'm digging that deep exhaust note. Makes me regret getting the 2.5" headerback! lol

Nice parts list. Talk about jumping in the deep end instead of wading into the shallow end though.

I installed the Crawford AOS. I used Hillman Spring action clamps from Lowes instead of the zip ties included in the kit. The zip ties are much easier to install, but I wanted the installation to look more OEM.

I have a Nov 2012 delivery BRZ Limited. When I removed the two inside nuts from the strut-firewall braces and test fitted the AOS canister with its attached bracket, the bracket was too wide by 3-4 mm. The outer edges of the bracket caught the outer two nuts. Rather than grinding the bracket to fit, I found two 1.5' X 3/8" fender washers in my 20-year drawer. When installed between the bracket and the strut bar, the washers raised the bracket sufficently to clear the outer nuts. My new friends at Rally Sport Direct (purchased from them) thought a modification to the AOS bracket might void the warranty which is why I went with the fender washer spacers. Crawford's design elongates the two bracket mounting holes which allowed the studs from the firewall to align. The folks at Crawford responded quickly and nicely to my tech assist email.

Hope this helps with your install.

Wish I had your deep pockets.

Remember the destination may not be as enjoyable as the way you get there.

Buy or borrow a Dremmel tool to radius the plastic cover. I found I needed more clearance than I saw in the DIY videos. The fun part of DIY is the tools you now have good reason to purchase. Take your time and test-fit until you have 1-2mm around the hose.

Friday I will have a Dyno done on the stock drivetrain as a baseline.

As drivetrain parts are delivered and installed I will update with more.

Interested for your thoughts on:
Perrin Oil Cooler FRZ/BRZ
Koyo Radiator FRZ/BRZ
Perrin Transmission Support Bushing
Beatrush Rear Differential Support
Whiteline Rear Positive Shift Bushing

I was thinking about radiator and oil cooler soon. Also the support and bushings are of interest as stock all that stuff moves around easily.
