I have the tune coming too and a test pipe replacing the secondary cat. Maybe we can compare and see if that catback or test pipe offers better gains.

Thanks, I'll stick to that for now and wait to hear some results from what people are trying out

Where do you take your car and how much do they charge? My SRT header back is coming in tomorrow and Id like to compare them without many variables.

I'm still waiting on to get my tune activated, hopefully John has some time tonight.

I was going to take it down to Performance Autosport. They're mainly a mustang shop (a very well respected one), but the shop manager there was actually offering a free dyno to the first BRZ/FRS owner to stop by. i was going to take him up on in it but then had to bail. the offer may still be out there, you're welcome to it. i'd take it but i feel like a douche for bailing so i'm going to make sure i pay them for the dyno time. not sure what the rates are though.

That would be amazing to see a before / after with the tune in place since they have posted results on the stock ecu. Jealous, haven't heard one in person but sounds mean in videos.

Dyno runs are typically $50 to $100 for an allotted amount of time. A wee bit more if they're tuning for you. If you're simply making 2 or 3 runs to compare before/after... closer to $100.

So tonight coming from work i was just messing around with my friend in his solara when i bumped into a blue brz or it might have been grey but i think it was blue lol(no i wasnt drinking) and i tried to give him a little show with the tune. Getting closer to my house this rsx type s popped out in this orange color i love and was revving up here and there so i decided to play around. We were at about a 30 roll coming off the toll booth and he decided to floor it, so about a sec later i punched mine and it was no contest, by about 60 i was zooming ahead and once we hit 90 i was ahead like 3 car lengths. i pull of the next exit and he follows and his exact words were "WTF!", we pull over to the side we talked a few minutes about the cars and he cudnt believe how fast the car. He said he felt like his car was in slow motion because he was flooring it and when i passed him it was like i flew by him! Love this Freaking Tune man! And to the guy in the brz im sorry man wasnt trying to be a D*** was just trying to show off the tune lol
