With my Vortech I went from 6psi to 9psi then 11psi on a stock engine. The I built my engine and running 15psi now. But that is on a 350z which is a totally different car. Point is, u need to know the limits of the engine before acting smart and putting a hole in the block, and 188whp is for sure way bellow the limits of the FA20

188whp with tune? Without? I won't hold the initial numbers against them, it's all about the end result. Once they slap impressive numbers like 250whp+ then I'll definitely buy a kit (with warranty - a must!)

No movement on this kit from Raptor at this time, progress remaining dependant on a vehicle becoming available, which is a challenge in regional AUS
I think by Xmas this year there should be at least 12 turbo kits and nearly as many SC kits for the BRZ/86 twins. By a further 6 months I reckon there will nearly be a specialist kit manufacturer for every 86 made lol

It is true a car is needed, nonetheless planning continues and execution will be quick should the moment arrive to do the install.
Price is likely to be much lower than $3600 now, a far more efficient design plan is now in place to complete our Subaru range of SC systems
