Spotted a white FR-S this morning eastbound on I-10 around 8am near the I-17 stack with Mardi Gras beads hanging from the rear view mirror. Anyone?

They are on fteightysix.com and say they adjust +/- 2.0 of camber. Any opinions if these would be okay or not would be awesome!

I have them they work just fine. Might want to pick up adjustable for arms depending how much adjustment you need but these do come with eccentric toe bushings for that purpose too. I like em because they look oem.

I have them as well. No complaints. They held up fine during autox. Not sure if there is much more to say.

He recommends QT for them. So I did, when I still had the STI. Figured I might as well stick with them as best I could when I got the BRZ.

I do get consistent gas mileage from QT gas (steady mid to upper 27 mpg measured average, 29.x as read by the ECU), so I figure that's indicative of consistent E-content as well. It seems to always stay there, as long as I don't excessively high-rev the car (that is, stay in cruise revs when cruising, and whatever I care to rev to when I'm on side streets or passing), which I like. That's 10mpg more than when I would utterly granny drive the STI. More fun with consistently higher mpg's. I LOVE this car! Then again, I wasn't getting 27mpg when I first got this car. More like 24-25 mpg with those driving habits. So, thanks @nelsmar. That's his road tune (over about 35 iterations) that's giving me that performance.
I would say he is correct. Like I said I monitor knock religiously in all my cars except the FR-S so I have developed a very good sense of what is good and what isn't. Sams club gas was the absolute worst I ever tested and I wouldn't even put that crap in my lawn mower. Knocks so bad I can't believe anyone uses it under any circumstance. Anyway the only reason I don't monitor it religiously on the FR-S is because there is no real easy way to do so unless you are actually datalogging. Many other platforms make it easy. From all the datalogging I have done with this platform though its no different in results with QT.

QT is also notably less expensive than Shell VPower 91 or Chevron 91 by at least $0.2/gal usually (more if you aren't paying with cash at Shell). So, overall, it's not just good consistent gas, but financially smart too... kind of like our 86's

Is knocking related to the chirps?

No. Chirps are proven annoyance-only issues with the high pressure fuel pump.

Knocking is also called "detonation", which is actually "additional, unintended detonation" in the combustion chamber during a piston stroke. That has nothing to do with the noisiness of the HPFP.

Alright just talked to @DeliciousTuning we are good to go! However it looks like I need to get the Honda Map Sensor instead of the Omni 4 Bar I have. Anyone looking to upgrade for more boost than the Honda Map they are currently using?
