Pinche cacaguate!!!!

Hello everyone my name is Paul and my cars name is kakawate! Pleasure to be apart of this forum and the gt86/frs/brz community. I own a auto asphalt 2013 scion frs. I have owned the car since August of 2012 and have been just recently modding it out. I really love the cars capabilities and handling puts a huge shit eating grin on my face every time. Kakawate is starting its path down modification and I have already got lots of great ideas from your guys posts.

So far I have 17x9 rota grids on sumitomo rubber and m7 t-titan exhaust catback on the car. But both have made noticeable performance gains. Up next is my m7 panel filter which will be here in days and a intake system from syms or zeek soon after that. I am trying to acquire parts off rakuten.com which is a pain in the bum but its a middleman free source of jdm stuff. Working on a cf sard intake tube and if that falls through I will probably go for a zeek complete intake kit. Anyway thanks for checking this out and I hope I can help contribute any way I can. Gonna try to keep kakawate N/A and be happy right around 250whp but most likely will supercharge

I like your choice in parts but you won't get anywhere near 250whp. You'd be lucky to get 200. Regardless, looking forward to seeing pics man.

I should be able to squeeze 200 from the parts listed but there will be much more dyno tuning and fabrication as well. Right now I'm sitting at 162whp with 156wtq. Gonna probably do e85 too

Would mind doing an exhaust video of your M7 T-Titanium Catback Exhaust? I'm really considering purchasing it and there aren't enough videos or people owning the exhaust for me to justify spending over 1K on an exhaust. From videos I've seen of the exhaust on the 86's, they sound amazing but I'd like to hear more videos so I'll get a general feel of how the it sounds if I do purchase the exhaust. Another question, how do you like the in cabin noise? Any drone?

I have the video ready just give me 24-48 hours to figure out how to get it on here lol sorry the videos don't do it justice it truly is one great sounding exhaust not to mention the power gains I've shown. To be very clear about the cabin noise is a nice rumble no annoying drone ill try to do a driving video for ya @akahenry

Zeek full carbon kit ordered last night from evasive should take about 3 weeks to come from Japan super excited after than will be an open flash and front/over pipe!

Scored laile parts straight from Japan via rakuten. After shipping it came a little less then stateside vendors can't complain. I will keep you posted on shipping duration, and ect.

Got the M7 air filter today from Topgearsolutions.com. Car is breathing much better now best part about this filter is the rubber gasket around the edges like the apexI filter. Going to flow and filter much better from that rubber seal.

Had to take the airbox out and literally stand on it to get the clips to shut on the airbox. It's rubber seal is much thicker that the stock filter.

Plasti dip came out clean and I had lots of fun with the learning curve as it is very forgiving! All in all a great way to change the look of your car and its only 6 bucks a can at home depot. Barely used one half to paint 7 coats on each emblem.
