Here is a crap recording of my MAD intake.

I don't think that is stock, or maybe a design update in the later models. Both my 2014 FiST and my 2016 FiST didn't have those. My 2014: My 2016:

If it only rattles, you are lucky. Most vibrate loose and fly away (the whole diffuser). Also make sure you keep checking where it mounts to the plastic webbed bits as those will eventually fail. The mounting of the product leaves a lot to be desired.

That basically excludes anyone tracking the car.

Did I mention that as I was drinking my coffee this morning... I started thinking that grass growing in the park. After that the fans came on and I realized that I forgot about a TV show from twenty years ago (Shoutout @concept) so I drove to home depot because there was a sale there. Later I...

I tend to put new rotors on when changing compounds, I usually go through two sets of pads a season (about 15-20 days). So if I stick with the same pad, just one set of fresh rotors a season or 1.5 seasons depending on their thickness. I have found going from PMU to another compound is okay on...

Yea go zero front toe and that will help with tire wear. I run zero in front. For the rear, if you want more stability, run more toe-in total. I run about 1.5mm in each side. If you are able to get more negative camber in front, I would run at least -3. That will help outside tire wear on track.

Are you sure your front toe is correct? I would go for zero toe in front. Is that rear toe total or per side?

Yea it's for sure louder. Sounds like rod knock, right? haha. Can you post the full log?

It very much depends on what oil you use, and where you purchase your espresso.

Sir, did you make yourself an espresso while lapping? You know, I have been thinking about getting one of those robo lawn cutters. It would give me some time back to get back to my happy place hobby, knitting with industrial electrical wire. Have you seen what they sell at Arby's now? That sun...

What on earth does your unrealistic break-in anxiety have to do with what the OP is asking?

Another track guy was having an issue like this and it worked for him. I also had this happen when I upped the rail pressure with the OEM HPFP, and it also helped with that so I put two and two together. ;)

I tell people all the time that the Supra has a shorter wheelbase than the BRZ/86, by a little over 4 inches even. Most don't believe me.

I guess it's the normal MO of our resident boomers @lucky phil and @concept to completely go off script randomly. @BA9092: "Hey, check out this photo of my car in front of a lake in Texas that I posted in our what did you do to your supra today thread" @lucky phil: "I'm looking at this...

Yup, bumping oil pressure 4500 rpm + by just a little worked for me. Even at 29psi boost. I got it once on track, and right after a shift at high RPM. I run 5w40.

Or you could use a service if you don't want to invest in those tools.
