WPC Treatment

Afternoon everyone,

I did some searching on the forums but came up dry in regards to WPC engine part treatment. Does anyone know of it being done to either the FRS or BRZ?

If so can a knowledgeable member or someone experienced with WPC Treatment comment, or has plans to do so.

Thank you everyone,

Thank you everyone,
You should be more specific on what exactly you would like to get WPC treated and what you would like to accomplish from it.

I have used this treatment and still continue to use this treatment to a number or different parts for engine and transmission builds. It has been documented to lower drag in the transmission considerably when doing all the bearings, gears etc. Their is documented proof of its benefits and this is why it is so popular. Cryo-REM is also popular in the racing industry for the same reason. Cheaper methods are Cryo and shot peening of course.
