but it's probably coming back soon Now that I'm divorced, the only car being the BRZ doesn't make as much sense (she had a '15 Mazda 6 Grand Touring), so we had a little fun car and big comfy car. So something quick with a bit more room would be nice. But I have car ADD so I'm not going to do anything anytime soon. At least until I'm back into a full-time gig vs a contract job. |

The Jackson Racing Rotrex kit is CARB legal as well, makes more peak, but obviously doesn't have nearly the tq/midrange of the TVS.
JR also just released a high boost pulley (not CARB legal), fuel pump/injectors/custom tune/E85 = 380whp!! Of course you'd also need a clutch and you'd be on borrowed time on the stock bottom end. The rods seem to be the weak spot north of ~325whp-ish. Although there are some lucky guys that have thousands of miles north of 400whp. That's what they are claiming. They are saying it's 60% at ~300 crank HP for the BRZ, so 95% for 500 crank seems reasonable. If I ever buy a SC kit for my Mercedes, I'd buy a carb legal kit and get the sticker, then if I need more power down the road buy upgrade parts for the kit. |
There is really a ton of great options for this car, not just FI, but suspension, brakes, lightweight parts, exhaust.....even CFD tested aero parts.
I'm hoping the BRZ doesn't turn into a "1 and done" generation car. |

TVS1320 will be lucky to hit 400 on a good motor. Probably good for 380 tops on a subaru motor. I'm glad the smartened up, there was talk of using the TVS900 and I thought that was laughable.

I had a cheapo wheel bearing I bought fail on the outback after less than 1 year. Next time I bought the high end bearing for it, fixed that problem ever since (about 2 years now). Funny enough, left rear on mine too! There was actually a recall on my car for this.

I hope you all know this thread gets shut down tomorrow.
And in its place there will be the Mercedes-Benz thread. |
This is an unacceptable development.
Instead, might I recommend that you use your magical moderator powers to displace the MB commentary into its own thread? |
it will never happen because they will both die of boredom driving the benz :fawk:

Kekekeke!
I drove the Subaru yesterday for the first time in 2 weeks. Its kinda nice to have AC and not feel the need to drag around a tuning laptop around with ms :D |

this is NOT an awesome downpipe that I love on my car that you should get for yours.
totally is not :giggle: http://cdn2.bigcommerce.com/server50...0.1280.jpg?c=2 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1441126215 http://www.hptmotorsports.com/images...9_007001-4.jpg |
Well, it is "USA's Finest Downpipe." :giggle:
|
One of the reasons I like those guys: they make good products, here in 'MURICUH, and continue to develop new products and such while still having competitive prices more or less. Them and Nameless Performance
Most others either outsource to china, or use china janky materials, or blatantly knock off altogether. |
I wonder, does the big dog Magnaflow fit under the WRX? :giggle:

<p>Put it in the hatch.</p>
