Innovate Motorsports Twin Screw Supercharger Kit for FR-S/BRZ

Dumb question but what is fuel economy going to be after an install like this?

He probably wants to know what kind of general mileage hit we'd see. Of course it depends on your foot, even the car stock can range from 10mpg-40mpg.

I don't know how you'll drive it.. I can't control your foot

I would rather add something like the robi spec cooling system or Perrin oil cooler and aftermarket radiator. Keeping underhood temps down would still help I think. Any input from Innovate on this?

Running the intercooler system completely independent of your engine coolant is critical to its function. You would not want to run the hot engine coolant through the intercooler, it will be hotter then the air even after it has been compressed. It would be more effective just to run less boost pressure (5psi) on the non-intercooled kit, and then just upgrade your radiator and add an oil cooler. I quite like the Robi Spec solution too.

I only because your company is not well known for forced induction conversions, is this the first mass produced one?

So if Cusco might be supporting Japan, and you're only doing North America, what about the rest of the world?

Cusco has no involvement in the development of the kit, you will not have any issues getting the kit in your country.

Really dude? Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the things you do for our platform but you know exactly what the fuck the guy is asking for. I understand giving a definitive answer might be hard but there is no reason to say something as asinine as "DEPENDS ON YOUR FOOT!"

You made a big deal about your tune improving mpg a few months back and backed that up with testers so I think it's fair to ask if there is any data regarding the fuel hit one might see going with this system. If you have no data, there is nothing to say.

Let's try it another way. How much will fuel consumption change during a steady state 70 MPH?

Cool that is what i had planned, i wouldn't run the intercooler any other way than what is recommended but the non intercooled with oil cooler and radiator is what i want.

Chill dude! I mean someone could be redlining it the whole time when they drive or someone could be shifting at 3000 rpms. How is he supposed to answer that kind of question? A more valid question might be, "I'm getting 25 mpg shifting at 3000 rpms, how much more mpg should I expect an increase of?"

You can do that without a supercharger. Have you tried?
