i really don't want to boost it. i drove a turbo brz the other week as a matter of fact, and it was ridiculous. no traction, so twitchy on the throttle i just didn't like how it felt. i really like the brz when i ring it out, just needs a tiny bit of more power and a front sway bar. i also think i might switch up spring rates and revolve the AST's. but i can't decide if i should go with a 2-way+ external reservoir when i revalve, its most likely over kill

i really want to do full header, tune, final drive. i think that will make the car really fun while still reliable/practical.

I'd love to! too baller for me, though. I'd need coilovers and 4 new tires on top. just bought a nice cheap set of flow-formed 17s, so I can reuse my two good tires. getting mounted this weekend!

I'm kinda suprised you didn't go toward innovate'a 210 s/c. With a conservative tune it would meet your goals without you loosing the original BRZ's feel or reliability.

Dude that sucks what happened to your car. Can't wait to see what you do come spring.


Good luck selling the wheels, your car sold me on the wheel fitment I want for my Brz eventually. They're Rays too just not those Rays lol.

That can all be tuned with a change of a wastegate spring or a change to the boost controller. You can run just a little more power. In the end it will be cheaper than a full out 9000 RPM NA build.
