    Yes, I have the eject decal already. Haven't yet told my partner about it...

    Top Gear could show them a thing or two about how to film a car.  That and the voice-for-advertising-holiday-homes doesn't do it any favours.

    MartinT reacted to spikyone in Is anyone forced induction and still passing emissions tests legitimately?   
    Harrop supercharger and Rogue Motorsport EL manifold.  I previously had the Tuning Developments manifold.  Martin on here had his Harrop fitted with his existing TD manifold a few months before me and was concerned the engine bay was getting a bit hot, as the TD manifold loops up into the bay, so he switched to the Rogue manifold around the time I booked in to get the SC fitted.  I saw his pictures and got serious manifold envy, so I ended up going the same route.

    I have the Perrins. They work well, still subtle but make a difference. Bought on eBay from the US.

    I've got my 60k service coming up soon so I've ordered a set of Delicious Tuning Blue OEM+ coilpacks for when the plugs are changed.  Thought it worth having done at the same time as I'd like the best spark possible for pickup and response with the Harrop.

    I've followed @SimonG68 in my supercharged BRZ with his auto 86 in sport mode. I can tell you he doesn't hang around. I had to be on it in the right gear all the time, and could pass him on a straight, but the auto also looks like a bundle of fun.
    Choose whichever you prefer.

    They fit HKS plugs (did my 60k service last week). That's fair enough, you must on the absolute limit of the pump with your setup.

    There is a very easy way to know if the pump is at its limits. If you have any obd2 sensor like Torque Pro, then check values of AFR calculated and afr measured. If the measured is a higher number than calculated , then its running lean, aka fuel pump is at its limits.
    Don't modify/ add a higher capacity pump and / or injectors without checking this and validating.

    It was around £4500 fitted at the time, all superbly installed by Abbey Motorsport.
    As I explained in my PM to you, I really didn't want a turbo marring the excellent knife-edge handling of the car.  The supercharger is very predictable in that regard and just feels like a bigger engine.

    Strange, it's the other way round for me.  3>2 is the worst change and baulks sometimes, all others are fine.

    I have the shifter springs and they definitely help shift quality.

    MartinT reacted to BRZ-123 in What intake is this?   
    I believe the Immobiliser setting works only if the car is switched off. It will not switch on as the start up fueling is set to zero . With a running engine, it should not immobilise as it is very risky if a user error happens.

    Hah - my supercharger makes it louder.  Difference between turbo and 'charger.

    The TD NA kit removes the first cat from the manifold. It's already louder than a stock car.

    It sounds nice with the super-resonator, no drone on the motorway but still makes its presence known.

    I had to swap out the resonator for the super-resonator.
    My BRZ is my daily driver and it was just too loud to be tolerable on my 40 mile commute. It was also sleepy village uncouth at night.
