Mmmm that surprises me somewhat as I thought the less restriction you have when sucking air through an opening the better and as the more restrictive it is the more heat generated for a given boost pressure.

I could understand that reasoning with say a turbo as it is far easier to compress / push a set quantity of through say a TB / opening than pull/suck the same quantity through the same TB / opening .

From what I understand the more energy required to pull that air through the opening the more heat generated so the Grams TB should be a benefit in this (Sprintex) application .

Hi,guys. I'm really looking into get a used innovate 210 SC for my 2013 FRS. Is there any different between the old innovate kits and the new 210 sprintex kits? What should I pay attention to purchasing used old innovate kits?

They're essentially the same. at some point the design was updated to add a sight glass, but that's it.

you're going to want to make sure it doesn't use too much oil, although i'm sure someone here can give you a better recommendation on how to do that.

Is it really worth the extra 2hp? Up to you.

Too much oil referring as supercharger oil or engine oil? I will have a professional shop to help me install the kits.

So somebodies already done a the Grams TB on a sprintex 210 and only got an extra 2hp?

Any further info like dyno chart or are they a member here as I seem to remember a post here of someone who tried it on an NA
car but not supercharged .

I am also a bit sceptical that a bigger throttle body for Supercharged cars won't give some kind of decent gains.

I know it did nothing for NA cars, but the superchargers are sensitive to precharger airflow. Harrop have gone for a larger throttle body on their supercharged track car which is putting down 420whp, and I wouldn't be surprised if there is a larger TB for the next Cosworth release.

It seems like a good way of getting more boost without putting more parasitic strain on the engine. But we need proof.....

Does anyone know if the 210 SPS is still on sale? I can't really seem to find it on their website and I looked in a few other places (like moto-east, ft86speedfactory etc.) and didn't see it on sale. Is it something that needs to be special ordered?

Did a quick search and couldn't find anything on the size for these orings. Anyone happen to know?

I've got my nameless intake pipe for sale (not made any more-best way to increase whine...) and 335 kit fs soon.

PM me if you want it!

No issues with car, but my suv died and it's more important for me to have a truck than car (sadly).

Took my 210 intercooled kit off after 23,000m with the supercharger. Very happy with how everything held up. Those 23,000m I had zero problems whatsoever. The only thing I noticed was the hoses that extend the throttle body heater hoses. They were starting to crack maybe something for you guys to check or keep an eye on

Went for a ride in an SPs equipped car 2 nights ago... it’s awesome... and I’m busy ordering mine now.
So yes, it is special order, but IMO worth a little extra dosh.

Waiting on delivery of my 210SPS
