Ha, totally kidding! Good luck on the search, and hope to see you in the class.
Heh! Thank you!

I plan to stick with a codrive in STS or in my ES Miata for autox. I want an twin so that I can try TNiA or other HPDE type events.

I am New!!! Hi guys.

Hi everyone! My name is Fernanda, i'm from Costa Rica and recently I bought a Gt86 2013 (in september 2017).
I am a little bit dissapointed because in this time I changed the ignition coil (I heard that this is not an usual problem of them).
I Fix that, and also I bought a header borla UEL, my car was 100%stock. I had dyno runs before and after of placing this header and we have the exact same numbers. This is normal?
I have the stock exhaust.

Just a header will not give you enough of an increase to show up on a dyno.

The coils were a problem with some of the 13s. There was an ECU flash that helped.

Nice! I wanted that color, but I settled for the discount that taking the white one they had on the lot got me

Thanks for the answer!!!! The next step it would be to change the exhaust. I already changed the ignition coil.
Nice to meet you

Welcome.

Changing the exhaust won't give you any gains either. It will sound cool though!
You need to get a tune to take advantage of the header. A drop in high flow filter will help as well.

Thanks for that info. For that tune I require another computer? Which brands would you recommend?

Nah. Exhaust alone does very little.
Tuning is outside of my experience but you can get loads of good info in this section http://www.ft86club.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=88

Hello! My name is Mark and I’m a student at EWU! I bought this ‘14 BRZ from an auction and been working on getting it back on the road over the last month. Today I got the car registered and looking forward to all the miles to come!
