Innovative MotorWorks - 603whp/47wtq on a Stock Engine

Pulled from their Facebook Page:

As some of you may know, we have been working on a custom turbo kit / build for a Scion FR-S since January of this year. The goal of this project was to take an existing stock engine record for this platform (FA20 engine). The previous record, held by a great group of guys in the Midwest, was 604whp / 472wtq.

As of yesterday, July 13th, 2015, we are proud to announce we have not only taken the record, but have beaten our expectations by a long shot. Subaru and Toyota have really outdone themselves with the FA20 engine.

This engine is 100% stock inside. The oil pan was only removed for installation of the oil drain for the custom turbo setup. Stock rods, stock pistons, stock crank, stock head bolts, stock head gaskets, stock cams, stock valvetrain, stock intake manifold; stock everything.

The setup is as follows:

- Custom IMW-Spec turbo kit (using Vibrant Performance fabrication components)
- Precision Turbo and Engine 6266 BB turbocharger
- 3" exhaust
- Walbro 450lph in-tank fuel pump
- 8AN fuel feed (with 6AN split to DI fuel pump), 6AN return
- GM FlexFuel sensor
- Injector Dynamics 2,000cc injectors
- Radium Engineering fuel rails
- MFactory Competition Products LSD
- Driveshaft Shop carbon driveshaft and Pro axles/hubs
- EcuTek International Ltd RaceROM

After some complications involving an incorrect-fitting differential from another manufacturer, and some headaches involving another method of engine management, the car finally hit the pods for final dyno tuning yesterday.

At 28psi, the stock FA20 produced 693whp / 506wtq on pump E85 fuel with John Kerr of J-K-Tuning/IMW behind the keyboard. Attached are some photos of a group of dyno runs showing a handful of runs above 600whp to prove it wasn't some one-run-wonder, also (photo excludes three runs that were lost due to maxing out the actual torque limit of the DynaPack on a run that made 30psi or so).

We would like to thank the client for his patience in this endeavor, as well as everyone involved. Videos to come later!

Very interesting, though I wonder how long this motor will last before it goes ka-boom.

If I recall correctly it already has went kaboom.

If it's a 2013 motor, there's no way it'll last with stock internals...those 2013 motors are ticking time-bombs with boost

Shocked :)

Yay the fifth thread on the same topic! As for the 2013 engine. They all are ticking bombs at this power level...

What's different about the 2013 engine? Are they more prone to failure, or just more people have them, and have modified them, thus more of them failed?

I just meant regardless of the model year all of the engines are ticking time bombs at those levels. Nothing is inherently different from 2013 to 2014 except some of the early 2013's didn't have the tune to "fix" the direct injector failure issue. 2015's do have some moderate changes but nothing that would keep it from lasting any longer than any other model year.

I don't see where you are getting this info from.

Umm.. Where did you get that info from? lol
I'm almost at 100k miles with boost on my '13

20k on boost. Vortech with smaller pulley

Oh, I don't know, just about 40-50 threads from people with 2013 cars with the motor going bye-bye despite the best efforts of the owners and shops that worked on the cars, lol :thumbsup:

Kaboom doing what? Driving around? Hitting the track? Pushing the motor to get a higher hp on the dyno till it hit its limit, on purpose?
