Christmas List - What's your plan?
Hey guys!
Hope everyone is doing well....it's that time of the year to splurge! What are you all getting for Christmas? Car Parts? Electronics? Here is my car list:
I have the order in as of last night, just awaiting shipping info, ETA over the phone was 6 weeks. I plan on getting an standard alignment, until I can save/figure out what type of rims I am going for, more then likely 17x9 or 18x9.5 Volk TE37 SLs then I will get corner balanced.

Well I am thinking of ordering a few things for better airflow. Since I'm working with a budget and avoiding warranty voiding.
As of right now my list is as follows... Subaru Red Intake Manifold Mishimoto Induction Hose Mishimoto Cold Air Intake Maybe a Nameless exhaust header to start the exhaust make over. |

For the BRZ, probably DT flex fuel kit to go with my Edelbrock SC and maybe some fresh rubber (which ever is on sale, most likely PSS's)
For me? Piloti Superstradas (https://piloti.com/driving-shoes/cas...ada-camel.html) |

If I may recommend... Ditch the CAI and pick up an Openflash tablet and a dry element drop-in performance filter. The stock intake is already good and there is very little restriction there. If you're set on having no warranty issues, ditch all of that and get a nice sounding catback. Back on track: I'm hoping my JDL UEL catless header arrives before Christmas. I ordered it 2 weeks ago but it hasn't quite shipped yet. I'm pairing it with my Corsa catback and hoping it all sounds good. *Edit* Welcome to the forum btw! |

PRO TIP - Wrap your ignition coil(s)with reflective coating, I had coil A (I think) go bad (26k miles) and the assumption is the heat from the UEL and position causes the coil to panic/melt causing a CEL. The tape is much cheaper then replacement coil and way less cursing when doing the work. See - http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showt...=30879&page=15 and props to smbstyle for the pics. Any plans for mid/over pipe? I am still stock, it's giving me a bit of rasp at top RPMs my assumption is that once I swap that I should be fine.

No plans on front or over pipe at this time. Midpipe and axle back are the Corsa pieces currently. It's truly a beautiful exhaust. Excellent sound, excellent quality, excellent fit. Unfortunately, I've heard that when its paired w/ a catless header, it turns into an absolute screamer. As in window shaking, ear splitting loudness at any RPM above 4-5k. For this reason, I am actually going to have my stock catback ready when I install my header, just in case it's too much. Q300 and Perrin 2.5" resonated is my short list for replacements currently. Maybe next Christmas will be suspension mods... If I can hold out that long *edit* I will be insanely jealous of those volks... I cannot wait till I burn out the rest of the stock rubber so I can justify upgrading wheels and tires. |

For me, I did a bit of breather mods, just to get the extra punch, now its time to get suspension in order, next big savings will be for the Volk's on some stickies and then S/C. I keep my cars for 10 years, so saving and enjoying the process is my game. I got tons of time to save, but man they are sexy! The wife said the same thing about the tires, kill the ones I have then use the money I would have spent to replace the tires into the rim/tire package.
