SBD Turbo Kit Installed and Tuned!

Hey guys,

We've done some minor work on the FT86 platform, but this was our first turbo kit, so I thought I'd share the results.

This was on a 2014 FR-S that came in with just an exhaust and left with an SBD turbo kit, Perrin Oil Cooler, Koyo Radiator and tune.

The blue baseline is a bone stock FR-S and the two green lines are with the turbo kit at about 9psi. That's a 95whp gain on 91 Octane and still retaining the factory cat section!

Impressions of the kit: This was one of the first kits released from SBD so we worked closely with Chris on a couple small refinements. Overall the kit is very complete and the fit and finish is excellent. I will be proud to recommend the kit to future customers.

Driving impressions: The powerband feels great and it really still feels like an NA car due tot he flat torque curve and very quick spool. The chassis seems to handle this power very well all around. I just checked in with the customer since he's had the car back for a few days and he's very happy with the outcome and the added power.

Here is the chart and some pictures of the progress:










Thanks
