Works uses a air to water setup. You could run it with an intercooler. But it would be a lot of custom fabricating

This was in fact the non carb kit. So far everything seems to be working as it should. I installed the kit with less than 10 thousand miles on the car and currently only put 3 thousand on it since. I'll be sure to keep you posted long term wise. I'd say as long as you're not going for peak power, you should be good. The kit is very tame

Do you have any sound clips?

Is that the standard Perrin CAI? Or custom for the kit?

Stock. Works turbo kit was designed to keep oem airbox, so it works with the kit

Where and how did you mount your oil cooler core? Been looking at getting the Mishimoto one as well but it doesn't look like it would fit with the auxiliary radiator.

I'd say the price tag for the Works Turbo kit was most certainly worth it in the long run. As everything fit as it should and felt really nice and looked good while doing it. The kit is capable of making much more power, but I wanted something modest as I'm trying to get as many miles out of my BRZ as possible. The upgraded turbo spools real nicely and makes very lovely sounds as well. I wasn't thinking I'd hear much if anything, but it's got a very natural flutter and just enough blow off.

The car sounds much more mild yet a touch throatier. Almost achieving that iconic boxer rumble. Getting on it no longer sounds like a high pitch scream but more so distinct and low.

The car seems to be running the boost great! Temps are where they should be if not cooler due to the upgraded cooling components and oil stays well under 190 when moving air through the cooler. The cars been dying for the extra power. It almost feels more driveable, if that makes sense? Getting in and out of gears feels far more effortless and rev matching is far more predictable it seems.
Overall, it's a lot more engaging and rewarding to drive!
