I know everyone is talking about price...but 20 years from now an FRS with TRD parts will be in a class by themselves.
Think about finding an AE86 with TRD parts? Or a 91 Civic with Mugen parts? Pure gold. Now it was also harder to get those parts back then, but now money is that divider not availability.

lol the TRD USA exhaust probably makes more hp than the JDM TRD exhaust.. the JDM one is only axleback with no midpipe upgrade
But yes, I didn't buy this strictly for hp increase hehe.. the bodykit and the exhaust needs to work with each other imo. No idea what it sounds like yet.. that installed pic was sent by the person who installed it while I am at work.. I'll post some videos when I get her back. |
