I dont have an FR-S/BRZ YET, but I just recently enlisted into the Navy and after I graduate boot camp I plan on getting a new car and my interest has been the FR-S. Having worked at a Subaru dealership in the past, I had the joy to drive a few BRZ's and quickly, as everyone else would typically agree, realized how slow it was. But the handling was phenomenal. I am looking to build a daily driver/weekend track car/show car and after thinking about it, the FR-S/BRZ platform will work numbers on and off the track. But it just needs more a$$!

After quickly looking up turbo kits for the FR-S, I boiled it down to your D3 kit for its overall amazing look for turbo placement and the HUGE intercooler that was really the selling point for me. And even with 350-400whp, its plenty of power to have fun. After I purchase the car, your turbo kit is going to be the first thing bought for it! The downside to me is where I get the FR-S, which is going to be where my schooling is located... which is in The Great Lakes area of Illinois instead of being "down the street"(San Antonio) from you guys in Houston. And I would much rather you at D3 Performance install it other then a shop I am unfamiliar with in IL.

Anyways, I am sorry for a pointless story! I am just excited for this future project for myself and all of the opportunities that will hopefully present themselves. Keep up the excellent work and please keep posting updates. I can't wait to purchase the car and kit!

I would recommend more research and another couple ranks before you buy a BRZ/FR-S and add forced induction. The car will not achieve 425 whp on 93 octane with the factory compression ratio. The stock clutches do not hold up to anywhere near the power you are talking.

Haven't had a demand for any more than how it comes out of the box

Here's the last stock vehicle locally to receive the kit and have before and after on a mustang dyno

New goal for mine is minimum 425whp. Need bigger fuel pump, maybe injectors.

wow, i have been looking for a while for a turbo kit and was down to the accelerated performane kit as my choice until my friend pablo told me about you guys in houston. your fab work is amazing. very well put together kit. just have a few questions before i pull the trigger. how has the customer feedback been? anything that the customers said they wished they would have done to the motor before the install kit to eliminate problems down the road? i see the intercool is pretty large, do you guys recomend getting a performance radiator so it doesnt over heat or is the stock one fine? i see you guys tune on pro efi, do you guys sell harness's also for the frs? thank you

I have no issues with this kit. I wouldn't safely go over 350whp unless you want to drop compression. Especially if you drive the car everyday.

They tune with EcuTek, no longer ProEFI.
