If you are positive the used Sprintex you are looking at is a safe bet, than you are saving a ton (which is awesome!), but put that savings towards some "less sexy" supporting mods to keep it safe and reliable. |

I've built a 600 whp SR20 S14 in the past. K20 swapped ITR DC2 before that etc I was in the process of LS-swapping the S14, but one day I just didn't have the energy and motivation for it. So I sold it off in parts and got the GT86 instead. I was just sick of wrenching on the car all the time. With the 86, I just wanted something fun to drive without pretty much any issue. Ironic as hell, considering how my 86 turned out...

You got it man! Good luck with the build! Sounds like you’ve built some pretty awesome vehicles before. How have you been enjoying the 86 so far?

Then I decided to go Rocket Bunny v1 fenders, but keep my TRD kit I had installed the year before. Went over to three piece SSR SP1 wheels with Toyo R888's. Then I just fell in love with modifying everything, except for the engine - with the header and E85 tune, I couldn't do much more with it being NA, but at the same time, the power was enough for me and most of all, there weren't any problems with it. Just fuel up and drive! It was still a mechanically stock car, so loved the reliabilty. Started going to shows, winning prizes etc. Had a blast with my friends and the general vibe of shows etc. So then I went even further, with Air Lift suspension, Varis body kit, redid the interior, new wheels yet again.. Basically quite a lot of work. But now, I feel that FI is the next step. Both because I want to experience it, and to evolve the car even further, not just with cosmetic mods.

Any gains from a bigger throttle body like grams or blox? |

You can get the bump to 100 octane by starting with 94 plus add a can of Boostane. Check this out: https://tougetuning.com/do-octane-bo...roven-results/ Touge Tuning also sells Boostane so if you do end up going this route, do post up your experience/results. Oh, and of course, goes without saying almost, that adding a can of this every fill-up can get pricey - but then again, this isn't exactly a cheap hobby! |

The bigger the better, lots of options there. We have not tested a TB on this setup but I'd say it is likely to pick up HP given the physics here.

Touge Tuning are always leaving a foot print in the subaru world here in the GTA. I never knew about these Boostane results, good share. I got a quote for the 210 supercharger kit + ECUTEK tune + labour = 7,050.00 before taxes. If things go as planned this spring I will be getting it done. |

Don't know about him, but since I'm going for straight E85, I have DW 700cc injectors on the way and will get a bigger pump too. Just to be safe.
