New To Me Turbod FR-S
This past weekend I just purchased a 2013 FR-S. I've always loved the styling of the car and loved the driving experience on the test drive. As stated in the title, I noticed this has what appears to be an Avo stage 1 or 2 turbo kit. This car was rear-ended with minimal damage last October, sold to Carvana, fixed up, put up on auction where it was bought by the used car dealership I got it from. From what little I read, I know these engines don't like a ton of boost, but I believe the turbo kit on it only goes up to 8 psi. Other than upgrading the clutch (it slips when it builds in to boost, or is just worn), what should I potentially worry about and try to upgrade to ensure I don't grenade my engine? It has 79k miles on it, and I would like to somehow find the original owner to get more info, but it's been through two auctions so I'm not too hopeful on finding info. Would there also be a quick way to tell if any engine modification has been done? Don't currently have the car in possession, the dealership is doing some finishing touches on it (new rear wheels, some paint correction, and new taillights). Will have it hopefully this weekend.
