Suggestion for a turbo kit on a Scion FRS
 
After owning a stock FRS for about a year now, I have saved up some money for a V2 Rocket Bunny (and coilovers) and a turbo kit. I want around 300-400 HP. I can do the install myself on both the Rocket Bunny and a turbo kit. Which turbo kit should I get for my FRS? My turbo budget is 8,000 dollars. I've looked into Greddy kits, but I would like to take in some suggestions before I do anything.

I'd go with Ptuning or Fullblown with that budget

I think most people would agree that you should go with Full Blown, RevWorks, PTuning and maybe AVO.

This thread may help you out as well: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=56783

do a triple turbo setup.

save money by not tuning, just a shops way of extracting more money from you.

Header and a tune should produce similar gains though

I always wonder how these threads get made. It's always by people with low post counts, and always in the wrong section. It's like they had to have searched to get here, why not search a bit more and not look like an idiot?

HMMMM saved $8000 over a year, can do a RB and turbo install themselves, yet hasn't done one lick of research until now.

I'm predicting a "got my car impounded and then smashed" thread because #NEEDFORSPEED.

Yes, I have done research. I just wanted an unbiased suggestion of how to make my car better. I've worked at a body shop in Los Angeles for 4 years now. Up until a year ago when I bought my FRS, I've only ever done superchargers on V8s. I'm new to the import world, apologies.

In all seriousness, the link that themajesticone gave is pretty awesome. If I ever do want more power (really big if) I bookmarked that thread for future use.

Thank you. I will certainly look into that!
