Automatic Owners - Help us develop auto compatible versions of our turbo kits!
 

We are currently seeking an automatic transmission FR-S/BRZ owner that is willing to loan their vehicle to us for testing & development for automatic transmission compatible versions of our turbo kits! This would be for both Tuner and CARB Compliant versions.

We're looking for a vehicle that:
is a 2013 to 2016 model year
Has the OEM airbox, exhaust manifold & front pipe installed

We imagine that:
Initially we'll need the car for a few days for testing.
If that goes well, we'll have the car come back for about a week to install a complete kit.

A Stage 2 CARB Kit, WORKS air filter & installation (with Eneos oil change) is about $6,800.

We'll be offering at least $1,000 off and potentially more depending on how available the car is, what equipment it has and how long we'll end up needing it.

Let us know if you or you know someone who would be interested!

Cheers.

I'm on the east coast unfortunately, but I would purchase this kit in a heartbeat if you do release an AT version. As an engineer I personally think this is the best designed FA20 turbo kit on the market.

Other than the oil drain location on the block, is there any reason why the current tuner kit isn't compatible with the AT? Based on your (awesome) install guide, that was the only thing I could see that would prevent this kit from bolting on to my car.

Thank you for the kind words!

And you're correct about the main issue. There might be some other small changes like vacuum line routing, but the only real obstacle is the oil drain location.

Since she's up on stands until spring, I'd be tempted if I were a young man. But I'm getting old and just like cruising curvy roads, so I'm staying NA. Thanks for the opportunity though.

I am located about 20 minutes from your shop!!! Interested

I would be interested, but I live down in SoCal. Road trip!

Much depends of course on what we find during testing, fitting, etc.

PM sent.

It's looking like we'll be ready to perform the first round of testing next week.

If you're interested volunteering your vehicle let us know!

If you even move to Canada let me know. With the dollar value as it is right now, you could bring down costs significantly. :)

^ That!

We have a lot of guys that are out of work out here in the west. Come set up a shop lol you will have a work force and its cheaper labor, at this point it is almost as cheap as making stuff in china :popcorn:

fucking eh.
ehhhhh.......
both you and I are about to see an inflow of asian investment into buying more land and houses. i estimate a 20% jump of property values by end of this year.



back to the thread thou.
What is the issue with the traction and turbo? I see everyone running traction off with their AT turbos. Is this mandatory?
Does the extra power cause wheels to slip which causes traction to cut power?
Do I have to drive it in Snow Mode if I dont want slippage?

Wouldn't driving in snow mode all the time wear out the transmission because you're starting in 2nd gear all the time?
Just confirming. I thought that was always the case.
Also, I was reading somewhere they are thinking of proposing a non-resident property tax in BC. I don't see that as being useful at all.

Bump!

You of course don't need to commit to our offer for a turbo kit to volunteer your vehicle. You can simply volunteer. :)

Let us know if you have any interest!
