Not that I have heard of with the Vortech, but I run 14 psi daily on my Full Blown turbo kit on 93 US octane.

How'd your install go man? Haven't seen any updates and was curious if it came out OK.

We do not offer a header for the BRZ/FR-S.

However, feel free to message me in regards to any questions that you may have relating to our parts that we do make!

Thanks, I actually went on the Perrin site and chatted with one of the CS reps, very informative. You guys seem like an awesome company and I can't wait to get some money saved up for the Vortech system with Perrin tune.
Gonna love this car so much

Install went fine, with the exception of the scratches on the bumper. Car runs good, was expecting a little more power with the kit, but I find myself at 100MPH pretty fast, I guess I miss the tourque of my EVO X. Need to do some loggs and see how much boost I am pushing.

Be sure to post some graphs man!

Has anyone else installed this kit yet? What kind of WHP are people seeing on stock motor or with minor modifications?

You are running map 2 right?

[Deepseadiver]

I have not ran map 2 yet, I thought map 2 was for 93 octane. Only have 91 here in Hawaii. Is it posted anywhere what the difference between map 1 and 2 is?

I think thats what the difference was, did not know you didn't have access to 93

Many of us have installed the kit. Here's a thread that has most current builds with parts list and Dyno numbers. http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34703

Glad to hear you were able to reach out to us and get all the information you needed via our live chat! Thank you very much for the kind words.

When you are ready to get everything going, shoot me a PM and I can see what I can do for you!

Quite a few people have installed the kit, but will probably not see this to reply and give you feedback. If you do a quick search and use Vortech as a keyword while searching for "Title only", I'm sure you will find plenty of install threads/reviews with dyno graphs as well!

The stock pulley is 9 PSI on the current kit. 7 PSI is from an older version of the kit, not sold anymore AFAIK.

The green line on top is with the stock pulley on map 3.

But yeah, there are a bunch of people with dynos posted just search around, or shoot me a PM, I think we have cluttered up this thread enough already.
