What's nice about being Military is I got a 500 dollar discount...so I went ahead and opted for the Cold AirIntake and the filter from the get go since that's comparable to the 500 discount.

Agreed. And I'd like to add, if it was me, I'd keep the car as OEM and original as possible. Heck, I know I sound boring but my modding days have been long gone, hehe.

Thanks! Yes, it was a typo. I want to still read feedback from actual RS owners. It just seemed that the thread had slowed down when I had posted my original comment.

You bet I would save everything. Noticed everything I plan to do is easily reversible. Not the first car I am modding - I did a full FD2R conversion myself on an SI that I have undone myself also

*Yeah it's a stupid ass thread alright..*. Somebody venting their opinion on how Scion failed on this release. And pretty much how Toyota continues to bone us on this platform. Not listening to the consumer, and releasing silly special editions. When all some people want is optional parts to customize their car. After all that's what Scion is supposed to be about. The XB has more performance options available than the FRS.

At first I really didn't like the yellow in the pics but once I saw it in person at 86Fest I thought it looked great. Honestly all I want is that TRD steering wheel! Love that red top marker
