The HKS v2 definitely has my attention, and its not terribly expensive. I prefer the powerband these sort of kits provide; I think it fits the personality of the car much better.
Things to consider for boost:
-dyno tune (canned tunes are OK for getting you to the dyno)
-clutch
-header
-depending on pressure, WMI kit or e85
-catch can
-coilovers
-motor, transmission, and diff mounts (the engine moves A LOT)
-better brakes
-down force (the ass will step out a lot)

Nobody will ever be done with modding, but I'll definitely have SC kit with supporting mods/Dyno tune/Coilovers/mounts/BBK/front splitter with GT wing.

I have done a lot of budgeting for this already..
It's just a matter of time and timing.
And yeah, a supercharger is better suited for this car.

0-200 run video on that kit. Wow.
This is really fast.
Looks like it took 14 seconds to get up to 115mph.
It's as fast as E92 M3 at that pace. How ironic.

Not really. Tomei is pretty big on 86. It's one of the nice ones. Super light too.
Compare to BRZ, M3 is super heavy. I think almost 800 lbs heavier?
A completely different car I would say. Haha

My interior panels will probably be done this week.
I'm thinking of picking up one of this for the steering wheel column. Only $50.

What? Tomei?
Nope, white turbo 450hp brz has it. Guy from our meets.
I don't like it, and no way to single exit.

Awesome. I'm actually super excited. Just resting was getting old pretty fast. I think I'm still too young to take several month off straight.
I have much more responsibility at the new position so it's certainly going to be challenging, but at the same time, it's going to be fun.
Time to work hard and play hard.
Will be getting my coilovers in 2 months!

Congrats mang! Too bad you couldn't come up here for your cruise. But it all worked out regardless. Can't wait to see how the suede pieces look... so classy.

Yeah I really wanted to drive up all the way up to Oregon but I failed. Maybe next time.
You will love the pics. I love them. It tones down the overall mood of inside. That's what I wanted from these.
Cost me $7 for the fabric and about an hour from my wife.

dude yes. Even with plasti-dip (I did about 7 coats) it made the interior look less cheap. Ironic, but that's what a lot of other people have said about it too. Having the shifter ring bezel and HVAC panels black helps too.

Yeah, I was thinking of doing something with those too later.
The brushed silver look too flashy inside in not a good way.

It's really hard to capture in the pics how these really look in person. But it does match the seat alcantara pretty well!
