This will be a first and will be looking into a few other items specific to the FR-S/BRZ platform.

Yep, in-house build. As stated, we are looking at this to be a more affordable option. Pricing still has not been set and won't be for another few weeks. PM Jeremy(FT-86 SpeedFactory) and he might give you the ballpark figure.

To all the feedback so far

You are correct, historically we have been a re-seller which we will continue to do. We are now also moving into making our own line of parts. We have been racing for many years and know how important quality and parts are.

We're very excited to get started building out own product line and have partnered with great local fabricators to bring quality USA built parts.

So far out of all the FRS/BRZ cars I have seen here at nationals, ours is the only one with an exhaust and the only vendor actually racing a car.

4" tips have arrived. Should have this mocked up for you all very soon.

xxscaxx · 09-11-2012, 12:24 PM

exhaust sounds great. do you have any DB readings? Looking forward to seeing the 4" tips.

This sounds great. Seems to be quiet as you described for daily driving purposes. If I were to get an exhaust, as of right now it'd be either this or the Perrin.

FT-86 SpeedFactory · 09-11-2012, 09:51 PM

We should have the new tips on this weekend and some more photos and then off to production we go.

We'll get DB readings here before it goes up with pricing.

So far put 1500 miles on it as we have been traveling a lot for a couple race events. I really enjoy it.

xxscaxx · 09-12-2012, 09:38 AM

awesome! Wish it was a tad lighter but we can't have everything lol.

I believe they have said that their V2 and V3 versions will be more focused on performance and weight management. Hopefully they will still sound as good as this one.

FT-86 SpeedFactory · 09-12-2012, 10:45 PM

Correct V2 and V3 will be lighter, but also louder.

We've been around the scene a long time and honestly if you DD your car at all the V1 will be the only one I will recommend for a DD. But then again I am getting old.

V2 = AutoX / HPDE car with very very limited DD use.

V3 = BECAUSE RACE CAR

FWIW I heard this car in person at nationals and the exhaust note is prefect. Its mild (as in not too loud but you can definitely hear it) in sound for volume but has the good sound you can get out of these cars. Definitely one to consider IMO.

I've found it to be something I can live with on and off the course. It's back on the hoist now so enjoying it has come to an end for a bit.

ATL BRZ · 09-14-2012, 08:08 PM

Any pics of the 4" tips yet?

FT-86 SpeedFactory · 09-15-2012, 08:42 PM

Not yet. It's in production with the 4" tips though. Hopefully soon. Sorry for the delay.
