Kylefrs Build Thread
Scion FRS 2013 Black
Exterior Mods: Raceseng Tow Hook Interior Mods: Rockford Fosgate 10" Punch Subwoofer, Rockford Fosgate Prime Amp Performance Mods: Perrin Catback 3" Exhaust, Perrin Catalytic Converter Suspension Mods: BC Racing Coilovers, BC Racing Rear End Links Wheels and Tires: Enkei RPF1 18 x 9.5 +38 Offset (all around), Hankook V12 Evo 245/35/18 When i First got the car Then after many miles... The modifying begins with a subwoofer i didn't want to much sub so i just got a 10" sub Just enough sub to give you some feel but not make the car rattle Rockford Fosgate 10" Punch Subwoofer Rockford Fosgate Prime Amp then finally got the car paid off so more mods first... coil overs, wheels and tires BC Racing Coilovers Enkei RPF1 18 x 9.5 +38 Offset wrapped in Hankook V12 Evo 245/35/18 After it was lowered I changed the catalytic converter and the cutback exhaust system i changed it to the perrin front pipe with cat and the catback system perrin makes. i am very satisfied with the sound change and easy installment i would recommend this exhaust to any frs owners that are looking for a meaner exhaust sound but an exhaust that isn't too loud so you can enjoy your music or talking to passengers If you stay at 45 mph the exhaust note is nearly the same loudness of the stock exhaust. very satisfied and passengers notice the mean tone but do not complain that it is too loud I have had 2 people tell me it sounds like a Porsche After the exhaust i attached a Raceseng Tow Hook i cut the plastic tow hook cap with a step bit. if you want to make a hole in the cap i would recommend you go pick one up to make the whole smooth and easy to do... Next is sway bars and a Perrin crank pulley Both are already ordered |

Great build so far. How's the ride of the BC coilovers? Thinking about getting some but read some reviews about rough & stiff ride. Leaning towards fortune coils.

The bc racing coilovers are so rough but when you turn the knob for the ride on the top of the coilovers all the way to the softest setting it rides pretty good. Especially since I lowered mine so much.

Looking good! Any chance you could take a video or two inside/outside? I'm looking into the same 3in Perrin catback. Is it resonated? Thanks.
