What makes the 2013 the most tail happy? just wondering. haven't heard that before.
The suspension is different on these cars, it seems they've changed it nearly every single year, and the brz and frs were always different. They wanted the FRS to be the most tail hapoy, but they've reigned it in a little bit more every year.

Good choice on the filter versus a full intake. I only switched to a GrimmSpeed when I had it because I got it free.
ok yea i might order the perrin rear shifter bushing but toyota just contacted me saying they would replace the shifter for free even though im past the 36000 mile warranty. so ill wait till that gets done see if it fixes that rattle then see about getting the bushing. little persistence goes a long way.

yea after all the info ive read no intake is really worth it except for the grimmspeed its just too far out of my budget for right now. would rather get a OFT. thats pretty cool that you got one for free.

I installed the Yonaka cat back. Very mellow tone. Cold start sounds really bad ass but still pretty quiet. Less than $400 too. HP gain? def not. I should've bought the Greddy evo2 setup. Man that sounds good!!!!
Next step is intake but the Perrin cold air is illegal in Cali. Maybe Weapon R or aFe system? Idk. It's pretty cheap stuff.
I appreciate the feedback from all y'all. I had the same questions.

Throttle body spacers..... Thoughts?

i went with the mxp comp rs. decent price less than $600 and had a lot of great reviews.

I decided not to go with a intake as mentioned above. there arent any worth getting except the grimmspeed in my opinion. and that one is too much money for me. just get a drop in filter. i would say get a silicone tube but havent found one worth getting either. the mishimoto intake tube looks great. good testing. but i costs over $200.

ill give you the same advice i was given. get a drop in filter and save for OFT

Update:
Just installed the mxp comp rs exhaust and it sounds great! JUST where I wanted it in terms of loudness. It looks great too and like the adjustable tips. Sound is deep aand doesn't sound like a fart can.
Perrin drop in filter installed as well. Haven't had a chance to really test it out because it's been raining a lot. However first impression is great. Very happy with purchase and would recommend the mxp to anyone. Also install was very easy, no problems, took about 30 mins.
