Do we know what engine management system this kit is using? Is it a reflashed factory ECU or the F-CON. Any new info?

F-CON per the last HKS video release

I'm worried about the tuning solution, given my unpleasant experiences with trying to tune my NA car which I went turbo on.

Pulley test:


restrictor test:


and last but not least, a CVT Rotrex is not far off:
[u2b]YSVc_0jONgc[/u2b]
[u2b]ihdo78KsMOA[/u2b]

The power figures in that first chart are similar to what Raptor SC get from the old EJ20 with their kits - except the EJ20 starts at 55kw at the wheels. Would like to see what they can do with this new motor, especially since they have been Supercharging Subaru engines for longer than anyone else and currently offer the biggest range.

Good to see the honest dyno chart too, the 80kw is exactly what I would expect rather than the 160hp quoted by one US tuning company who just measured theirs.

Go HKS, it looks great

Providing its been tested at 95 f temp and no engine failure then its good, so far all the vids seem to be taken during snowy, rainy conditions which are the best conditions.

Give it some REAL heat and average fuel and see then if the tuning solution is good.

HKS will have already thrown some HUGE $$ at this BRZ/86 task. Be interesting to know what they have to recoup
