Verus:

Can't decide!

rcm47 · 06-12-2018, 12:34 AM

Verus flows better with the sti lip

johan · 06-12-2018, 03:10 AM

Another vote for Verus

Elliotw · 06-13-2018, 12:22 AM

Verus Installed!

JeremyR · 06-13-2018, 07:38 PM

yesss! the lines work better with the sti lip for sure. The TRD is too rounded..

Thought I update everyone on how the car is doing.

Last weekend went over to the Ridge motorsport park to do some drifting. I'm slowly getting better.

On the ferry:

Drift mode with my cheap rpf1s I picked up on craigslist:

Action shots:

Drift video

Car is out of my hands this week over at Drift-office getting some work.

Getting a baseline @ Drift-office

I have a whole bunch of goodies in store. But we will leave that a surprise.

JR dual radiator held up well on a hot Sunday doing drifting. This seemed like the worst possible situation. Low air flow and high revving. But she never cracked 230F. Very happy. Also you can see I picked up some white rpf1s for $225 with tires as drift wheels. They are 17x7.5 so skinny and small. Should make for cheap tires. I need to get this car out to a lapping day soon. I saw another tS at the ridge on sunday. But they were doing laps.

It's been a busy week for both me and the car this week. My car has been at Drift-office all week getting this installed:

Just got these pictures from the drift-office today of the install. I am picking up the car tomorrow @ 2pm. I am beyond excited! Also my old header is back on the car as well.

So I may have the first supercharged or Edelbrock TS? who knows. I'll post up some more pictures, driving thoughts, and dyno charts tomorrow. Going to be a long wait until 2pm tomorrow.

tehShirt · 06-22-2018, 07:51 AM

Very nice! The dyno plots for the SC already look great, I'm sure with the header it will look even better.

My low spoke look Prodrive GC-06H 18x8 43 offset

Really digging how this looks so much different then my set of TC105n's. Nice to have different looks. Supercharger has been a lot of fun but I honestly haven't driven the car much. I've been really busy with work and so not getting as much time in as I want with the car.

I an very interested to hear your thoughts on this setup and what you get for power as I plan to go boosted next year too. Still torn between this and the JRSC.

We will chat up next track event.

Today I installed the Verus hood vents. Really happy with the results. Will also help with cars cooling as well! I had the help of a fellow BRZ owner here in WA. Was an enjoyable day working on the car

Cutting up the car is always scary but damn it looks good man!

Elliotw · 07-05-2018, 11:10 PM

So after installing the headers and front pipe my car was just too loud for my tastes. so I swapped out my nameless axelback and put on the stock axelback. This took the volume way down. Too far down for my liking. Also certain rpms rev matches just sounded lame. Not to mention the lame tips. So I went on a quest to find an axelback which was in the middle between the nameless and stock. There isn't a lot of axelback options for the 2017+. I ended up finding the Fujitsubo Authorize S. This was about 5%-10% louder then stock through the rev range according to their website. I am also running a JDL ultra quiet front pipe. I figured this would add some dBs compared to their standard tests. I finally got it shipped over from Japan on Tuesday. Installed and it I am so happy with the noise level. This feels like the perfect exhaust setup for me.

My full exhaust is Gruppe-s EUL headers -> stock overpipe -> JDL ultraquiet front pipe -> stock midpipe -> Fujitsubo Authorize S.
