Pinche cacaguate!!!!
Hello everyone my name is Paul and my cars name is kakawate! Pleasure to be apart of this forum and the gt86/frs/brz community. I own a auto asphalt 2013 scion frs. I have owned the car since August of 2012 and have been just recently modding it out. I really love the cars capabilities and handling puts a huge shit eating grin on my face every time. Kakawate is starting its path down modification and I have already got lots of great ideas from your guys posts.
So far I have 17x9 rota grids on sumitomo rubber and m7 t-titan exhaust catback on the car. But both have made noticeable performance gains. Up next is my m7 panel filter which will be here in days and a intake system from syms or zeek soon after that. I am trying to acquire parts off rakuten.com which is a pain in the bum but its a middleman free source of jdm stuff. Working on a cf sard intake tube and if that falls through I will probably go for a zeek complete intake kit. Anyway thanks for checking this out and I hope I can help contribute any way I can. Gonna try to keep kakawate N/A and be happy right around 250whp but most likely will supercharge M7 t-titan cat back Buddy club header (check) Invidia resonated front pipe (check) Invidia overpipe (check) Buddy club racing spec coils (check) Strut tower bar (coming soon) Smoked corner reflectors (check) Project mu pads (coming soon) Open flash (sold) Buddy club tails (check) Zeek carbon intake (for sale) Buddy club front and rear control arms (check) Carbon fiber driveshaft (coming soon) Kraftwerks Supercharger(check) Aftermarket radiator (coming soon) Oil cooler kit (coming soon) Buddy club P1 black bucket seats (check) Buddy club big brake kit (coming soon) Toms carbon shift knob (check) Wideband and guages (coming soon) Work emotion xd9 18x9 Tanabe wideband (coming soon) Vented carbon hood (coming soon) Tommy kaira rear carbon trink lip (coming soon) New front aftermarket bumper (coming soon) Thanks, Paul Ps pics soon to come along with exhaust sound clip!

I should be able to squeeze 200 from the parts listed but there will be much more dyno tuning and fabrication as well. Right now I'm sitting at 162whp with 156wtq. Gonna probably do e85 too

Would mind doing an exhaust video of your M7 T-Titanium Catback Exhaust? I'm really considering purchasing it and there aren't enough videos or people owning the exhaust for me to justify spending over 1K on an exhaust. From videos I've seen of the exhaust on the 86's, they sound amazing but I'd like to hear more videos so I'll get a general feel of how the it sounds if I do purchase the exhaust. Another question, how do you like the in cabin noise? Any drone?

Got the M7 air filter today from Topgearsolutions.com. Car is breathing much better now best part about this filter is the rubber gasket around the edges like the apexI filter. Going to flow and filter much better from that rubber seal.
Had to take the airbox out and literally stand on it to get the clips to shut on the airbox. It's rubber seal is much thicker that the stock filter. Last edited by Kakawate; 12-21-2013 at 12:14 AM. |

Plasti dip came out clean and I had lots of fun with the learning curve as it is very forgiving! All in all a great way to change the look of your car and its only 6 bucks a can at home depot. Barely used one half to paint 7 coats on each emblem.
