I'd like to SC at some point, but that will probably be a year off at least. In the meantime, is Open Flash Tablet with a tune for stock to help the 4k dip a good idea?

I have an OFT Stage 2+ since I'm running catless headers, but in short, it did take it out somewhat. It also took out that horrible cold start sound.

I'm pondering headers. Is it possible to do headers, catless or catted, and get a benefit while not making the car louder? I'm wanting to run as quiet as possible.

I'm also leaning toward FlexFuel since E85 is readily available here. That should be really nice to have in place if I decide to go FI later.

I'm running catless Skunk2 Alpha headers, Invidia OP, 1320 Performance FP, and the Invidia Q300 cat-back w/ the OFT Stage 2+. My car is pretty quiet unless I get on the throttle and then it lights up. I think that's due to the Q300 as it seems to have a wide range of tones. I also think the 1320 Performance FP with reasonator takes out a lot of the drone and some of the loudness, too.

I'm soon going to be running an SC and E85 Flex Fuel soon, so I'm really curious to see how it's going to sound, then.

Hey guys and gals! I just picked up a 2013 FR-S with 51K miles on it last week. I'm absolutely addicted to driving this car! Glad to see a dedicated forum here.

Looks super clean. Nice find.

It appears I never posted here when I joined 3 years ago. I've had a dark blue 2015 frs since 2016. Bought it with 10K miles and it's up to 29K now. Pretty happy with it so far.

Same guy with user name Hoha Also tried to scam me with used Tomei Headers. Found the same image online from a reverse lookup of a LetGo post over a month ago.

OMAGOD · 07-17-2020, 03:23 PM

howdy y'all, i wanted to ask a crazy question, i'm brand new to cars and have NO idea what i can toss into my Automatic GT86 without blowing it up.

is it OK to install a turbo charger into an Automatic car? what are the dangers of doing so and are there problems i may run into if i go into "manual mode" while driving?

The answer is yes it's OK, and the dangers all depend on the quality of the product used and the installation. It is not any different really than adding it to a manual, and in fact some might argue the AT can handle the additional power better than the MT in this car.

Hi! I bought a blue 2013 Manual FRS in May with 63k miles, I am in love. I'm looking at mods now and currently the car is pretty much stock. I'm looking for a CAI, simple tune (maybe plug n play?), and perhaps a small spoiler to start. I look forward to looking through the threads!
