Finally Boosted and Tuned

So I got back from street tuning my FRS in Orlando, FL last night. Day before picked up the car from the mechanic. And shes beautiful. The whole 3 hour drive was a blast. I now know why people go boost. Its not for the speed, its for the BOV. Almost got caught by Highway Patrol last night but I got lucky. got pulled over this morning for "racing" but luckily the cop was lazy and let me go with a warning.

So here's the parts list I know y'all want to know.

Treadstone Performance EFR Turbo Kit
RUFF RACING - R357 wrapped in Pirelli 225/50/18R
ACT Stage 2 Clutch
AEM Guages, Boost and ARF
8000k HID Conversion Kit
And right now im tuned at about 11lbs of boost

and once I get to Germany I'm getting a new exhaust and so far its been about $7500 in parts and labor.

Huge shoutout to Andres at KAB Customs for the labor and James at HRI Tuning for harnessing this beast










I'll post more pics when I get the car back from being washed.

I recommend Eibach Pro springs if you lower it.
