It's nice to see the big name domestic companies sticking their toes into the import market, brings a fresh perspective and more R&D to things.

Exactly! Glad everyone is on the same page. This is really exciting to me. I think that it's important for them to understand all the really cool options for this car seem to have decent community involvement from start to finish of the R&D process. At the end of the day they are the big company, but we are the ones with the money to buy their products.

I'd absolutely LOVE to see a package deal with a competitive header on the market that includes an OS tune, something like the Ace 4-2-1 that gobbles up the overpipe, but allows us unique options or flexibility. (Bolt in/out test pipe/cat/resonator available to help adjust and tune sound and emissions, for example.)

I'd never run it.... but I think it'd be hilarious to see a carbed brz on the dyno.

Thank you for letting them borrow your car! Having some domestic header options should really start to bring other header prices down in the coming months...

Guys, I sent an email with everyone's suggestions earlier today and just got a response.

Holley is very welcoming to the community and suggested a cars and coffee at their facility. This would include a factory tour and an up and close discussion of my car in development and will take ideas into consideration as many people here wanted to be involved. They are very eager to be involved with the FR-S/BRZ platform.

Who would be interested?

Does it sound like they're going to come on the forums? This is a very active (and opinionated!) community, and I'm sure they'd love to give feedback and constructive criticism during the development process. I also think they'd have a lot of respect for a company that's willing to jump on the forums and get involved.
