This was my absolute FIRST TIME ever installing an FI kit on a car and I didn't have any issues.

I compare it to building ikea furniture. Read the instructions, under stand the part names, and take your time. It's easy and I had fun doing it
Perfect. I've done intakes and such on my old 4Runner, so I shouldn't be able to mess it up too much.

Alright, last question and then I'm sold pretty much. Do I need to be concerned at all if I'm installing this on an AT car?

Yes, I believe the tune is a bit different (@CSG Mike).

There's an owner on this thread I believe that has an AT with a JR Kit installed. He did a video and you could see the smile grow as the car pulled harder and harder

Rum

And to be fair I had already built a desk, bed, nightstand, and TV stand that day. Also, I had to build the dresser in the closet itself, since there wasn't enough room to build it outside and then move it in. And the closet is like... 2.5'x10'.

Awesome. I'm assuming when I'm ready to order I'll just call JR up and let them know.

I'm already really happy with the FR-S as my first "new" car, so I can only imagine how much more fun the SC makes it

We've actually installed several kits on cars with the TRD exhaust; you won't have any issues.

It does make the car sound much meaner though, when you have 60% more exhaust volume... that's a very nice exhaust...

Both are important, but you shouldn't be having any oil pressure issues unless you're done something funky.

Contact us first, but AT isn't an issue

Great! Yeah, I went with it because I loved how it sounded, even at low RPMs. The looks people give it when you come out of a turn are just too good.

Will do. Now the waiting game begins while I save up for it...

On a high reading dyno. Dynojet numbers are in the 245whp range.

Dynapack that was calibrated to measure from the hubs and output horsepower at the flywheel.

Yeah yeah. That's pretty much the definition of a high reading dyno.
