AVO Turbo Kit for Oz
 
The price inc GST is $4,400.
To secure one of the the kits I'll need a $500 deposit.

The kit includes an EcuTek tune and the stage 2 tune when it's released. Stage 2 will require hardware purchases such as MAP sensor, injectors, etc.
You will need to purchase an EcuTek licence to run this kit or use a standalone/piggyback solution. The licence can be purchased from AVO or any other EcuTek supplier.

Optional Parts:
AVO 2.5" stainless steel cat-back exhaust for turbocharged vehicles (MSRP $990.00)
AVO high-flow panel filter for the BRZ and FR-S (MSRP $55.00)
AVO Blow-off Valve Kit (MSRP $220.00)
ProECU Programming Kit

For details of the kit see this thread.

So how much would the kit likely cost all up installed and tuned?

Paragon 10-26-2012 06:27 PM

And has there been any dyno graphs released?

Yes there are graphs on the link in op. I think its about 90whp increase at stage 1, not sure of stage 2. 90whp is perfect imo.

Mmmm... So tempting.
Looking at wallet and thinking should I, or shouldn't I.

Does that price include postage to our door or is that extra?
Thanks.

czar07 10-26-2012 09:44 PM

From memory, which is pretty bad, I seem to recall the EcuTek license being around $250-300? Will we also need to purchase the EcuTek cable too?

I'll get back to you about postage. If I can't include it, it will be cheap.

Your memory ain't too bad. Visconti sells licences and cables. You can buy the cable or I have a loaner you can borrow to flash your ECU. The cable has good data logging inc oil temp so I'd recommended getting one.

So I'm guessing MRT is going to stock the AVO kit according to their latest post on their fb page (quoted for those without fb):

Who's gonna be the first AVO'ed 86 in Perth!?!?! :D

scyzer 10-29-2012 06:23 AM

Quick question: how would one go about getting this engineered in Sydney? Any idea what the total costs for the process up until handing over the certificate + blue slip to the RTA would be?

The modified vehicle certification process has changed in the last year. Read more here.
I don't know what it costs. Best to call the Roads and Maritime Services and ask.

Cheers. Good read. Any idea how difficult it would be to get the stage 1 AVO turbo kit certified?

Postage to Perth is likely to be around $130.

For orders placed today the kit due date would be mid-January. All the kits due in December have been accounted for.

I am now.

I thought it would be a good idea to initially ask a vendor of the product in Sydney.

DriftEightSix 10-30-2012 07:30 AM

Damn I want this but i also want to keep my warranty :s...

Might have to get it next year after tax time :D

If you think Fitting a TRD Supercharger will keep your warranty intact you are mistaken

got anything to back that up with?? From all indications its going to be warranty supported... provided its installed by a TRD dealer and not some random workshop.

Discussions with my dealership seem to be different to yours evidently.

Worked at a Toyota Dealer for 5 years...Even when we had the TRD vehicles any modifications which are likely to have caused damage to the engine/gearbox will not be covered under warranty.

Its like if you lower your car and then a driveshaft fails I wouldn't expect warranty to cover it (CV angles not correct etc)

86drift 11-07-2012 07:02 PM

I dare say people buying the AVO Turbo Kit are like me and aren't concerned about warranty.

If they are, they should not be buying a turbo kit.

I can appreciate random mods will void warranty, but when buying a factory aftermarket part thats fitted by a "certified service person" then i dont see how they couldnt.

Assuming the TRD supercharger will likely be expensive and low performing in comparison to other offerings (so as to be safe for warranty purposes.) Otherwise who would buy it?

What car have toyota released in the past 5 years that has TRD aftermarket performance accessories for you to compare to..

Just for your information the parts aren't made by Toyota.

TRD - is Toyota Racing Development made by Toyota Technocraft and as such the original vehicle warranty is not covered on these parts. They aren't Toyota factory items as such. They will have a warranty on the parts themselves but I wouldn't like to bank on a warranty on the driveline and engine components. You are increasing the stress on factory driveline and engine components, how can you expect them to warrant them if there is going to be a heavier load on them.

Not trying to be negative just pointing out the realities

omgwtfbbqsauce 11-13-2012 04:59 PM

Must.. resist.. must.. keep.. warranty

86drift 11-18-2012 05:00 PM

Anyone want an early Christmas present? I have a customer that wants a later delivery.
The kit is likely to land early Dec.

First in best dressed. Get in now to avoid a 2-3 month wait.
