- We pick up our 2022 BRZ / GR86 development where we left off since tuning is finally available! Thank you EcuTek!!!
We start off with a fresh oil change and install a catted midpipe, completing the exhaust system on the car. After this we tune the BRZ on our dyno on pump gas an E30 fuel.
Let's find out just how much power Subaru left on the table for this engine and which parts work (and which don't)

Excited to see the EL headers
Me too. The torque dip may not be entirely removed however.
+1 !
@@stratifiedauto Thats fine as long as that high rpm range picks up some power
That results analysis was so informative. Thanks for your hard work on this!
This channel and a couple of other adopters are part of what I enjoy about my BRZ. I appreciated all of your early coverage and am closely following your updates. The stepwise approach makes sense and that is appreciated
Thank you we will keep making more content!
Great video, excited for the next!!
Wow that sounds surprisingly good.
Been waiting for this video for months! Great work and awesome video. Thanks for continuing to drop content for this platform!
Thank you, the support we receive is the reason we keep making the content!
Thanks for the video, while I’m not interested in the platform, I enjoy watching your videos due to the more technical nature of them. Testing and analyzing is kind of my thing.
For a daily driver this is the perfect tune! You won’t really be hanging around that top end on the streets.
It’s great to drive. We have more coming that I am super excited about in this build.
Very cool thanks for the video.
I really like how consistent the tuned torque figure and how 4000 is emphasized for when you want to continue through. Great advice on the difference between unequal length and equal length. Definitely looking towards unequal length. Subscribing for what you can do with equal length. It honestly looks like it would be decent in North American red light traffic. 1st gear 3500 RPM shift 2nd gear 3500 RPM shift and then 3rd and 4th you shift around 2500. Combine a tune with a throttle response controller and you could probably net 26MPG and have that old school connected feel. No one really appreciates a smooth engine anymore.
Awesome! Subbed. Look forward to more from you.
We have new parts in :) More to come soon.
A little bit of oil misconceptions, but I’m still watching.
Very informative!
Thank you.
Thank you very much for your review and information .
Waiting for the next video with the EL
Seems like perfect tune
This car is a lot of fun. The next few videos I think you will find interesting as we explore a few more upgrades.
My 2024 GR86 is my first NEW car after driving a 2006 Chevy Cobalt LT (that I got used from a rental agency) for 17 years. I wish I had the money to just throw my fantastic warrantee and lifetime oil changes out the window. Then again...if I had that kind of money I would get a Supra or Porsche.
The right time to tune and modify a car is different for everyone. Warranty does eventually expire and I don’t see how modifying the car should affect the oil change package. The only question there is if you wanted to keep running the oil they are offering as part of it. OEM spec oil is quite thin for track use for example.
The torque hump would feel like those old 4AGE motors with the T-Vis switch over at 4000rpm. It was like a little push and then the revs built up fast. I have seen from other videos, you can up the rev cut to 7800 with the EL headers tuned, the power at the top end carries for longer which gives you a wider rev band between that torque dip and the limiter. The Australian BRZ does not have the carbon intake insert either, seems to be just the North American market.
@@you_can_fuck_your_own_ass_69 I watched a video some guys did where they just physically removed the filter from the North American model and also put it on the dyno before and after. Significant difference! They posted the video on TH-cam, it's called "FREE HORSEPOWER ! 2022 Subaru BRZ Dyno Testing !"
With the Ecutek Beta, is there an option to disable the cold start?
Can you put a link to the dyno graphs in your bio?
Please test with and without the carbon filter if you are doing filters.
Stay tuned.
What is default IAM value for stock tune?😊
Need to take those unequal length headers off.
We have a set coming in that I think you'll like
The new car is responding well considering the lower grade headers used. I’m sure a catless JDL 4-2-1 EL would wake it up even more for owners.
This is the second result I’ve seen where E85/E30 doesn’t give a noticeable power jump like it did on the Gen1.
Timing is fairly high even on 93. It’s a well designed motor and not very knock prone. So extra octane is not helping as much.
I doubt going catless will net any decent results at this power level. Modern cats flow very well.
@@JordieG8 The car in the video is running a catless header. I mentioned a “premium” catless header known to preform well.
Going catless would hurt the power , you would not go catless on a newer na motor , on turbo cars yes but even on my mk6 gti it's better to run hf cat vs catless, edit ... sorry read your other comment I understand what your are saying now
I literally thought you were pouring coolant into the oil fill. lol
Haha that would be fun. But only for a short period of time.
why in the world did you not use after market intake???
Watch our next episode to find out 😉
Is such little gains worth the extra wear and voiding the warranty? I mean if you are rich its fine.
There isn’t much in terms of additional wear. With NA cars these are the kind of gains to expect. It’s all about getting that peak efficiency of the air pump.
What tuning device are you running ?
We tune using ecutek. We offer both in house and remote tuning.
Why did y'all decide to use UEL vs EL headers?
We have compared a bunch of headers in this series. We have another set of header inbound to test. The UEL offer the flattest torque curve currently.
@@stratifiedauto good to hear, thanks
What mid pipe are y’all using?
Motiv catted
Unless you get custom headers most cars lose low down throttle responce because the primaries are too big. Header and exhaust companies just dont listen they only chase top end power
Intake?
We did this in an earlier video. But we do it again. Stay tuned.
Is it safe to change any part of the exhaust without ever getting a tune (and not getting a CEL)? I don’t care much for power gains, I just want to replace the oem parts with better quality material and also want the car to breathe a bit better without all the factory restrictions.
On the exhaust side the catalyst efficiency code is the one that may be triggered from header swaps.
I thought subaru solved the torque dip for the 2nd gen?
It’s better. It’s not 100% gone stock.
@@stratifiedauto that's too bad. Sounds like the turbocharged FA24 in the wrx is the way to go. Better power numbers, great mid torque numbers with flat torque curve, and same mpg despite awd.
Does all 4 cylinder have a nasty torque curve
A flat torque curve is what you want regardless of the number of cylinders. This one is quite good.
Clicked sooooo fast
Same
WHERE ACCESSPORT
Tuned via EcuTek
SO it needs a turbo?😁
It always needs a turbo.
Yes all na motors do , you can't make any real power on a na motor , I remember back in the late 90s going with a full na build on a ls/vtech in a hacth for a na motor ran well for all motor and was proud of it ,
@@reapersasmr5483 you can get away with not having forced induction in a bigger motor though like a V8.
Lmaooo knew these were slow but didn't know it was this bad
They’re surprisingly quick going through the gears. Well balanced power and chassis.
But if you do this does the car remain under warranty?
I m interested to enjoy this BRZ test with the best intake and exhaust system with you guys. Can I have you contact?
Yes here it is. www.stratifiedauto.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=324
So it's not much more powerful than the old gen with bolt ons so far.
It is. It’s about 40-45whp more.
@@stratifiedauto wait what? The original is signed 200whp with e85
Your video is very nice!! You should use a service such as 'promo sm'!!
Sucks lol still very low power car
Not sure what your expectations are from a 2.4l NA street motor.
@@stratifiedauto hopefully that engine can actually take boost unlike that paper tiger FA20 non DIT. That new BRZ will lose to my slowest car both on the straights and in the twisters. Those things are just neutered fuck them.
@@davidbeauvais1364 What other car on the market is RWD, light-weight, NA, manual, and costs ~CA$31k?
@@Dholi1 I’m not in Canada and sellers here are scalping them. They are just too low on power I waited correctly and now the manual Supra is upon us. But like I said because this car is slower and less agile than my worst car. You want a cool nimble RWD car for less you gotta go built not bought.
Yes still low power but it's a na motor what do expect
