Hopefully this is what you wanted? 13.75" from end of the wing to beginning of wing mount.

Thanks! I wish I could make it TF this year, but I have a newborn at home so not ready to be away from him for that long yet. I go up and run 221 every once in awhile though with Casey and the other charlotte 86 guys.

Did a little tuning with the Tactrix picked up 20 HP and smoothed a lot of the drivability issues out.

So what made you go with the side vs an upper vent? I've been debating which to grab

easier to mount/install, and I have to try to be different try the unpopular route constantly.

Just spent the past 30 min or so reading through your build thread at work, obviously the transformation of the car is impressive but the main thing I noticed was how much more confident you became in doing in your own work and fabricating. Awesome stuff man, do you have an IG for the car? I am also building my BRZ for track purposed but maintaining the ability to DD it if needed (full interior for now). VIR is only 1.5 hours from me and I plan to be out there spring 2021.

thank you! I guess once I stopped using the car as a DD and had a goal in mind (plus my own garage again) really gave me the ability to do what I wanted with the car and really dive into it and learn how to do everything myself. my IG is https://www.instagram.com/mount_tele_lion/. What org are you planning on tracking? IG as well?

Went to Barber Motorsports Park last week and got some awesome shots! Car ran great but ended up blowing an exhaust gasket out before the last session.
