Stock for stock IMHO the S2k will murder the FRS. that being said the FRS's inherent predictability makes learning to push the new cars limits that much easier for the average driver. and for the very experienced guys allows them to push those limits very quickly allowing for someone to know what they need to modify. my first 4 mods will be:

1) Tien SRC Coilovers with Swift Springs. 10k/12k -1.4"/-1.2"
2) GFB pulley set + Lightweight flywheel (ACT Pro-lite) SS clutch line.
3) Essex "Sprint" front BBK and good street/track pads in the rear (or BBK if AP makes a sprint rear) 286x28 would be sick. (HINT HINT) with stainless brake lines.
4) 18"x8 +40 front, +30 rear Forged1 7Mesh wheels (~17.5lbs) and 245/35 Continental DW (lightweight ~5lbs less than 225/40 dunlop ZII , reasonable traction) will move to something better later on.

From there i will will decide if the car needs more power to compete or not. i'll benchmark porsche cayman times.
