Yep. Pretty ridiculous.

Looks like I will be doing a full exhaust, intake, and then the HKS S/C kit. Slap some lighter rims and sticky 225s on there and I've got the performance equivalent of a Porsche Cayman for under 35k, and one HELL of a sleeper.

Drop the car 1 inch with some lowering springs and slightly stiffer anti-roll bars to compensate for the extra grip from wider sticky tires, and I've got a straight up awesome daily driver/autocross car/GT.

Now...about that warranty.....

Truthfully, if Scion offers a quality supercharger kit with warranty, that would immediately sway me to get the FR-S. The HKS kit is probably going to be great but without any kind of warranty....
