where is Vortech? I wanna supercharge - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

gmookher · 08-30-2012, 10:12 AM

Yes. thats right, call me supercharge ginea pig. I see lots of turbo stuff, any superchargers in the works?

I agree, I'm surprise theres more turbo kits than SC.
HKS seems to be the only official kit out for sale but I hate over paying for their stuff I also hate how uch of a messy flashy kit it is.

I want noisy whining SC!

There is one from Aussie as well. Not sure when it will be out though. I think that in a yeras time you will see about ten different turbo kits, and maybe five SC kits.

SEMA is in about 60 days. That is when you will see a lot of the big name manufacturers release their new products.

It is a good time. I will track down as much FRS/BRZ news as I can in between doing what I am actually supposed to be doing.

Im hoping for that as well, but im just going to continue getting bolt ons for now. I already have my exaust and tuning solution (ecutek). Once i get the header ill be ready and starting saving....

I remember for the 8th gen Si there was alot of kits like the jackson racing and comtech ones for around 3600-4200. They were not aftercooled though so maybe 5kish for a aftercooled kit for this car?

Bullet Superchargers from Australia have a kit with a screw type charger for these cars

denverizzles · 08-30-2012, 01:49 PM

Vortech has already said that they were going to release or show their S/C off at SEMA for the FR-S

CheesusCrust · 08-30-2012, 02:11 PM

I'd like a Supercharger to preserve the linear torque

VSGTS14 · 08-30-2012, 02:31 PM

Tradewind · 08-31-2012, 06:11 AM

Toyota dealer manager told me TRD will have an official SC on the market before XMAS I tried to put a deposit down but he couldn't legally do it so I'm on a list instead.
