> [@GV1390](#): > > You guys are really arguing over 200hp? lol. Nothing about the 200hp, about the added 60hp you get to the crank very easily. Edit: People say they are slow cars but dont realize how inexpensive it is to gain power. The car is priced lower because its pretty much a car built for tuners to enjoy throwing money at the way they want. Only downside is obviously the warranty gets voided. ---

They seem about just a little less worthless to mod NA than an S2000 ---

> [@deebo](#): > > They seem about just a little less worthless to mod NA than an S2000 I think the difference is the Money to power gain between the two. The FRS seems like its going to be much cheaper to mod than an s2000 to actually see gains. Where as you do the same upgrades on the S and you get like 5hp spending twice as much. ---

Yeah I’m guessing my header and catback on my S with intake gained about 5hp lol. All it did was make vtec sound cooler. I haven’t heard an FRS in person yet with an exhaust. My friend has a factory performance one or w.e but it’s pretty quiet ---

I had a bunch of 200hp jokes but I decided I should be happy people are talking about cars in general on here instead of homes. ---

The rules for damage/loss during a race are completely different. And if you can’t afford to walk away from a track day without the car you took on track, you can’t afford to do track days. - - - Updated - - - > [@POOPRA](#): > > so what exactly happened? what turn did you in? Front straight. I took the car out in severe weather on track tires because, fuck it, I had track insurance. The car hydroplaned and I wiggled the wheel back and forth to keep it heading straight. Once it slowed down enough to stop hydroplaning the front wheel was pointed toward the inside wall. The car took a set and turned in the direction the front wheels were pointed. Kaboom. Headfirst at 80 mph into the Armco. - - - Updated - - - > [@maxwell](#): > > It SHOULD get the new 2l turbo (as seen in new WRX) and be branded as the sti version but who knows. Highly unlikely. In order to fit a turbocharger on the car, given how low and far back the motor is, they would need to delete emissions. The OEM isn’t going to produce a vehicle that isn’t emissions compliant. Now - options include a front mount turbocharger like STM has been doing, or a top mount supercharger which is just a simple bolt on application given the H configuration of the motor. My money is on a top mount supercharger, as TRD has a history of offering superchargers aftermarket and keeping them in warranty. - - - Updated - - - > [@Skurge](#): > > i’m not sure you are correct, these engines take very well to mods > > this dyno is the same car,same dyno, same day. 100% stock and the higher numbers are ONLY adding a catted header(no tune) > > [ATTACH=CONFIG]33594[/ATTACH] > > add in the rest of the exhaust and and intake(which probably isn’t needed as the stock unit flows fairly well), and you’ll be knocking on 60hp at the crank > > and yes, hi, i’m an FRS owner also > > though, if you really want to go all out, and hit 200WHP with just a full exhaust and a tune, it can be done > this is an equal length, catless header, lower numbers are stock baseline, upper are header and tune etc > [ATTACH=CONFIG]33595[/ATTACH] So you’re saying it can hit 260 magazine horsepower with bolt ons, then you’re showing a dyno of the car hitting 200 whp (230 magazine horsepower) with bolt ons . . . . :picard: Please show us this mythical 260 horsepower dyno . . . . ---

nice headers and a tune for +20 or so sounds about right… I can’t picture anymore real power for cheap. ---
