Will FR-S ever have a aftermarket turbo built? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

docyzx · 07-15-2012, 11:18 PM

Im going to buy a FR-S later this year and i was wondering, will there ever be a turbo/supercharger made for the FR-S. Im planning on having atleast 500hp underneath the hood, do you guys think there will be aftermarket parts available in the future to make this happen?

Maybe not 500bhp, but there will be kits.

EDIT, I'm sure you probably could get 500bhp (anything is possible with enough money right?)

yormaX · 07-15-2012, 11:23 PM

isn't 500hp just over kill for the boxer engine?

Why not just spend the money on a '13 GT500?

Here is 25 pages of information in the Engine section of the forum. so far at this point, good luck getting 500whp on stock internals. And Gazoo racing already has a twin charged FRS race car that has been running at 315 hp, and HKS has a supercharger kit in the works. Oh, and PTuning is also working on a turbo kit at the moment.

yea i hope so, cause i heard the power on that car isnt really enough. If they do take out kits for this car that will increase the HP tp 500, im buying it =)

Bonburner · 07-15-2012, 11:25 PM

lol do a little research on the car before postin a new thread :P

if you're curious there are companies that have done a Twin charged - I think it was ~550 hp.

Actually, the power the car has is just perfect for what it was designed to be. I couldn't be happier with how the car is stock.

Now, that doesn't stop plenty of folks from wanting more and that's why we have an aftermarket.

I will modify... but I'm in no rush.

Just out of morbid curiosity...what are your plans for a 500hp FS-R?

mashal · 07-15-2012, 11:44 PM

Your on cloud 9. 500hp from a boxer ? Ye right .. Unless you completely swap everything in that nose your not getting 500 and if that.... and like others said please do some homework before making such a post.
It's obvious how much you know about this car.

There are many parts already to achieve this, it's called an engine swap.
