Hey everyone! Just picked up a 2015 Frs 6M a couple months ago "for my wife." Luckly she is really into driving modded vehicles so she will have no problems letting me get my hands on it! Im somewhat new to the import world when it comes to making power, im used to my big v8's so this should be a lot of fun! Hopefully I get a chance to meet up with a bunch of you! Here is my blank slate to work with!

Welcome!

Hey guys, new here. Picked up my '15 FRS in Halo. My usual haunt is Guelph, but my girlfriend lives in Waterloo so I'm there pretty often as well. Looking forward to getting to know you bros.

Welcome, usually meets die off during the winter months, but, have the occasional beater meet. Those of us who DD our FR-S bring them while the others show in their beater glory like an ugly Christmas sweater.

Cheers.

Not sure how much I'm going to be around next spring/summer/fall. The joys of working in the oil and gas industry leave me home roughly one weekend a month. Been talking with the boss to try and get a 21 and 7 schedule. At least if I'm home that much, I may be able to convince my girlfriend to let me get that fancy Cosworth Supercharger kit, HAHA!

Ive been looking into forced induction options as well... for down the road of course... Does anyone in the Tri-cities area currently run any type of forced induction?

[Triumphrider]

Hopefully vortech in the spring

[jonnybgood]

If you do I would love to check it out! Played with forced induction on a few different V8's at my previous place of employment, excited to see what these Fa20's can do! Wont likely charge my wifes frs until it is out of Warranty and paid for tho...

[Triumphrider]

I am already headers, billet power blocks, catback and open flash tune stage 2. I'm hoping for the $US to drop a bit and I'll grab the vortech. Headers and tune make a huge difference

Nice, I will likely look into the OFT very soon! Just getting things panned out with my insurance company to make sure they will continue to insure my wifes car after it is modified!

[Triumphrider]

Yeah I don't think I'm going to mention to them about the super charger. I can't see them having any issues with headers and tunes.

Just took delivery of the Kraftwerks C30 kit for my FRS. Car is currently in storage but will be installed by spring. I did all sorts of research on FI and honestly I would really consider other options other than the Vortech system.

[Triumphrider]

What didn't you like about vortech ?

[Triumphrider]

@Scracho where did you buy your kraftwerks from?
