There is no hks tune for 2015 FRS yet?

I went with this option https://www.ft86speedfactory.com/ecu...l#.XttOx0VKguU

Once the tune is done you keep the Ecutek cable and license so retuning again in the future is pretty cheap.

Picking up tomorrow. From install and tune.[/QUOTE]

How is the gt2 kit going?

Herc · 10-26-2020, 04:03 AM

We finally putted our vlogs together how we supercharged my GT86 with HKS GT2 kit.

Car is running for few months now, everything is fine and we already did a track day to test it properly.

Unboxing:

Short installation guide:

Well, I guess they aren't "slo" in Slovenia.

So I think I've officially settled on getting the HKS GT2 kit. However, after watching various videos and such, I noticed some distinct differences/ inconsistencies. The American (and some other out of country kits) have a different mounting bracket. The American GT2 has the shiny one, while the Euro/Japanese have the black one. As well, the installation instructions differ between them.

To make it a bit easier, I'm comparing 12001-AT012 vs 12001-KT004
My assumption is the AT012 is for the V2 GT2 and KT004 is the V3 GT2. After reading the installation manuals for both, there are a few small, but distinct differences. The American version requires cutting of the timing chain cover where the dipstick bolt goes, and something about trimming a fan shroud. While AT012 does not require those.

It may be petty, but I'd really rather not make such a modification. The other stuff I don't mind as it's easily replaceable. Any information is much appreciated. THANKS!

*edit* while writing this I read that the V2 vs V3 is piping diameter. Would running a V2 here really affect performance on American 93 octane?

Hi,
my supercharger just failed. How did you solve the repair / modification of the unit? Unfortunately, I didn't read it anywhere in the thread.

Dyno tested a car I tuned

Stock car on this dyno:

Hks v2 unrestricted + 100ron fuel:

Hks v2 unrestricted + 100ron fuel + 2/1000% Octane booster (65%toluene, 35%MMT) approx 103 Ron:

A little test and talk about HKS project:

jeepmor · 04-22-2021, 02:33 AM

My V3 HKS supercharger with the plug and play option shows up tomorrow. And it's already discontinued. Ouch. Is that the pre-tune option doing that? I see it available elsewhere w/o the flash kit.

86speed order.

@tomm.brz

Impressive results!

Which brand of octane booster did you run/use?

Been contemplating on stocking up on some booster for those rare occasions where 100RON is not available.

Thanks

tomm.brz · 09-30-2021, 11:29 AM

do it!
also if you get 100 ron, it s good too to put a bit of octane booster, specially if you have stock compression and unrrstricted v2

we use something made in italy, it s called Magigas AK5+ very expensive but already at 1‰ concentration it gives results
