Yeah, I have the JDL overpipe and midpipe. LJ @FullBlown didn't get all my money.

Nameless 3" full turbo back.

@King Tut, will look into adding a muffler to quiet it down before deciding to sell.

It sounds glorious. I can't say about gains cause it went same time as turbo.

Must thank you for making this thread. I really did enjoy the read and to hear about all these issues no one really wants to talk about.

I too like you bit on a couple of early items which I can no longer use (Full Blown Rad) and glad i didn't eat the charge for the Robispec just to find out it won't work either.

As for the two rads that do work I have already seen a Koyo rad that failed on a BRZ not sure if thats a one off issue or not but that has soured me away from them as well. I hope you will be able to find a answer for me before I bite the bullet on the AVO or FA20Clubs kit.

Thanks!!! I like being this transparent, as I know sometimes owners are shy to share their bad experiences.

I believe Full Blown might be thinking about doing something to make it fit.

To the man who loves sports and for some reason stopped counting at 83 on the way to 86...

Thank you for your thread. I felt it was genuine, and highlights the commitment needed for FI.

Last week i wrote a passage for our Houston folks detailing the commitment needed for **reliable** power and that its not as easy as bolting it on. Covered

+ cooling (oil, coolant)
+ catching blow by
+ fuel (injectors, pumps, the fuel starvation also caused by the saddle tank)
+ installation requirements (cutting, grinding, seals, fitment etc)
+ monitoring via gauges, torque
+ exhaust
+ traction
+ and brakes to stop it all.

Im glad you are committed to it all. I didn't touch tuning but I agree that's probably the most important. Cheers

Thanks man!!
Your intro line made gave me a good chuckle

.

It is definitely a big commitment to do FI and cover all bases. Never in my wildest dreams I thought I was going to modify this car to this extent but here we are

Cooling is the only thing left. Hopefully it gets resolved soon.

Damn. I couldn't remember if you actually changed to the 3" or not after our conversation. Honestly, I would keep it as is. You never drive the car anyways.

So nameless makes a 3" overpipe and midpipe?
