Ok heres my two cents. Avo japan is a sub of avo australia where its head company is. They have dealt with subarus but have never been recognized as having turbo kits. In japan there known as the cheaper brands. Vortech now has had numerous problems with their superchargers but has had some good builds. Quality parts and proper tuning maximizes chances of long life and performance of the engine. Unless you wanna have high hp like other kits and push it to the limit in the tune and engine goes kaboom. FA20clubs turbo kit is best bang for buck by far. and just so my second to last sentence is clarified, those fully built engines take high maintenance and money. They aren't daily driver cars unless thats what you love and can afford. So therefore without the right tune and parts its only a matter of time. For FA20club the parts are top quality and the tunes are still reserved and reliable.

The recipe for a built engine is fairly simple. A well built motor by a reputable person, a proper tune and regular oil change maintenance (which anybody would do if he cared about his car)
but hey thats just my 2 cent too

Full Blown had theirs out first and has been on a track car for a long time now. I have over 7,000 miles on mine. jussayin. :D

As I have told many others on this site, all of the turbo kits out there are worth buying. I think it comes down to preference and the small differences between them. I know I went with Full Blown because they were out first and were making production type turbo kits instead of one off kits. Now there are more options, so pick the one that fits what you want to do.

Not only did he bash the FA20Club kit, he pushed the OP to purchase an AVO kit instead. Last I checked John doesn't even offer his own turbo kit for the FRS/BRZ. I could at least respect him if he had his own kit and came in the thread to educate the OP on his kit instead so he could compare and make a decision. That's not the case at all though!! He wasn't trying to make a sale, he was trying to rob Tony of a sale instead!! What kind of miserable prick stoops to that level? John Visconti, that's who.

For all the Visconti fanboys, open your eyes and look around... I'd be willing to bet they would be far happier with the service and tunes from Tony. I could also go on and on about his flex fuel kit that he is now raping people on but I think it's time to end my rant.

OP, good luck with the turbo kit and sorry for the thread jacking. Tony, keep up the awesome work. John, eat a ****.

Couldn't have said it better myself...
