AVO turbo kit for BRZ - initial build thread - Page 193 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

@AVOturboworld, I've fell in love with the car again after exhaust leak was fixed. Get compliments everywhere for the "Boxer rumble". Car response was greatly improved too. Car feels like a beast, with good MPG too.

I'm sure with new calibration and E85 this will show some great numbers.

I have been hitting the same 13 psi after leak fix.

either way, new calibration will happen soon.

My bad, I had not read your question properly.

No worries man, just wanted to make sure there aren't more blown motors strewn around.

Glad you are enjoying the car.

I have seen the Fensport 102 European Octane / 0.75 bar Dyno ( 339.4 bhp / 266 ft/lbs torque ). Does anyone know for sure whether this is flywheel hp or whp? Many thanks.

AVOturboworld · 07-30-2013, 05:10 PM

266ft/lbs of torque would indicate that that is WHP. 300 crank hp is around 200-210ft/lbs of torque.

I'll talk to Japan about it, just may be a little delay as they are entering Golden Week there.

Well, not the first stress test for certain, and definitely not the last. But,

Just drove from Seattle to L.A. yesterday. 1186 miles, drove from 6am in the morning till 12:30 pm roll in to the hotel in L.A. The car and the turbo kit is holding up great! Just need to find some place to spray off all the bugs before 86fest!

Well, to me its incredible that not only the car is holding up good but you too!

Those long ass trips are a killer sometimes! Good job.

I so wish I could have made it to 86 fest!

Reason #1 for why I love AVO kit.... give you so much oem look under the hood, and great response too.

No AVO lettering on mine either. Really like the clean OEM look.

Just the usual updates - went to 86fest in Fontana, drove the beast from Seattle to Ontario, CA in about 18.5 hours of straight driving. Saturday, showed up at the driving event, let Taka Aono from Formula Drift take the car around some cones at the autocross and the drift event (video on the facebook page).
Sunday was the main event day, thanks to everybody that stopped by the booth!
Monday - headed back. Took 101 to San Francisco as a detour, stopped at a few scenic locations:

Stopped over in Oregon, and should be back in Seattle today!

Steve Sutcliffe tests Fensport's Toyota GT86 Turbo, then drives the firm's bare-knuckle turbocharged race car. And pits it against a McLaren 12C to see how fast a GT86 can really go.
