My FRS currently has the TRD Intake and Catback installed. I have been waiting patiently for the FT86Speedfactory Catted UEL (unequal length = sti rumble) headers to show up. 5 weeks in guys... I can't handle it.
So I've been imagining what it might sound like, feast your ears upon the fast n the furious glory.
What I imagine it sounds like, especially when I'm suiting up going to a formal event.

Next part I'm getting for mine is probably their front strut brace, then maybe some go faster bits. I already have the Nameless exhaust, preordered the nameless intake, and Tougefactory drift knob. But damn does that sound good.

Canada license plate, not cold where you're at? It isn't smoke....

After these bits, i'll begin to save for wheels and tires. After that the car is done...or so I say now.

Mine will probably be, Intake, full exhaust, a few more stiffening bits, maybe the Vortech Supercharger, and some better harnesses. I would love to try and do a combo charge setup though.

I learned recently that Spring is the busiest time of year for parts suppliers, resellers, etc. Winter is waning, cars are coming out of storage and going back out to play, people starting up projects again. Makes sense.
Related: I just went through a 3 week wait on a radiator and am in the middle of an 8-week wait for a miata seat.

I honestly forgot it gets cold elsewhere. Been in the high 70's since last November.

Any reason for a supercharger over turbo?

I feel your pain. I'm in the first twenty orders, but its a pretty small operation pumping out low volumes.

I'd rather have more low end torque than horsepower. Top speed does nothing really for me, I would rather have more fun sideways. But if I do both, then I that would be a lot of fun!

Please tell me you are getting a custom tune and aren't a tool bag spending a ton of money and then not bothering to get actual gains.

top end does not = only fast at hi speeds, it has to do with your rpm.

I just spent a half hour on youtube looking up exhausts for my ST instead of doing actual work because of you.
My ears thank you but my Monday hates you.

Tune is coming, debating on which route/shop to go with. I'll probably drive it without a tune for some time though, just to see how other's experiences go.

That's true, I haven't really looked into the turbo's yet, I just know I can operate the supercharger at around 10-12psi without changing any of the internals. Which would give me a net gain of about 100hp.
