Hey guys, I just wanted to throw this up here as a nice beginning to 2014. We recently completed the install of a Greddy Tuner Turbo Kit on a 2013 FR-S and we were pretty impressed with how this thing went together and performed for such a simple kit. For those of you that don’t know, there are plenty of turbo kits our there including the Greddy; some are pretty complex and some are fairly simple. The Greddy Kit is definitely on the simple side and, in this case, less is definitely more. If anyone is looking at a simple, well made, and reliable turbo setup for the BRZ/FR-S this is certainly it. Here are the specs: 2013 Scion FR-S Greddy Tuner Turbo Kit T518Z @ 7 psi Perrin Front Pipe and Catback Exhaust STOCK FUEL SYSTEM Tune by Doug @ TSM on 93 Oct
Thank you! It does look a little small, but there's really no reason to make it large at this power level. Also, it's made to accommodate the Greddy Oil Cooler which would sit to the left of it.
As of right now, there are no plans to add it because this is mainly a street car. It may be added when we do the Stage 2 upgrades that are loosely in the works.
It's varried a little, we've seen as low as mid 150s and as high as mid 160s. Here is a comparison from another car we did this week of it's baseline vs Intake, Header, Exhaust and a TSM Tune:
People have been screaming about this very thing with the Miata and Mazda still hasn't budge on that demand. I would like to think that with a healthy ROI on this model that FujiYota will see the light and step it up a bit in the near future.
The clutch doesn't hold power very well but the rest of the drivetrain holds power up to about 450 whp from what everyone has seen. We actually did an ACT clutch in this car so it will be fine.
You guys gonna post this on the ft86 forums as well? Don't see a lot of activity from you guys over there. Looks pretty awesome!! Thinking about FI later as well. Tracking it for now!
I was going to post it there but quite honestly, the vendor fees we had to pay to be a part of that site were very hard to justify based on the little volume we did with those cars - this will likely be revisited soon as we do more and more but until then I'm not aloud to post it per that forums policies. Let me know if you have any questions regarding these or need help picking out parts or anything. Thanks!
Ya'll know me.....the heck with forums rules....they are meant to be broken or to have loopholes exposed. :keke:
This particular car is tuned using ECUTek as the owner already had the license and the software. All the tuning initiated at TSM for the BRZ/FR-S uses a proprietary software that allows us to tune using the factory ECU.
