that is pure sex but why a supercharger when subies have had great experience with turbos?

ROCKLANDTOYOTA

^^ cause its not a BRZ

tdo

Omg that looks dope

rhythmnsmoke

Not 100% sure why. I could be the clearance.

That post makes no sense, it's a subie motor lol

youngflyer

True

Lex-M

This would be the best thing for the FR-S, Its looks were the only thing winning awards in my book. But now SC! A big Win.

My guess is because they are going for acceleration and not top end.....maybe for drift applications? Either way...I'm in love hehe.

draxcaliber

they need to center the intercooler better! lol

youngflyer

^^^i noticed that too!

TheQuietThings

not a turbo because this motor was never designed for turbo. it may be easier to fit a SC than a TC. With the motor sitting so far back I am not sure you would even be able to fit a turbo on that motor how it normally sits on a WRX/STi/FXT/LGT

The supercharger on the stock motor made 250whp and the rebuilded motor the supercharger made 394whp.

I can dig 250whp...In this lightweight chassis, that should be mid-low 13's for a daily driver. Where did you see it that it made 250whp on the stock motor? I posted that video in the Lounge section. Love to see it on the dry to see how the power puts down.

I see that they redesigned it also, compared to the pic I posted above.

I think HKS is going to have two versions of the supercharger. A street kit and a racing kit. If you look at version two they removed the A/C.

I used the Google translator
The Japanese forums said 250ps

HKS86はノーマル状態で172psだったそうなので、
今回スーパーチャージャー付けて250psということは78psアップ！
夢が広がりますｗ

Since it was HKS86 172ps in the normal state,
That is 78ps 250ps supercharger up with this!
W extends the dream

Here are some more parts and another video from HKS.
sts manifolds (86 look better for me)

supercharger kit and oilcooler kit


6-speed sequential transmission

Dang...on the trans. That was FAST!

The Header looks good. Hope someone can come up with a way to get a turbo routed in there. Wonder if that re-design can be re-routed to keep AC, cause I like the way that looks compared to the original (or street version if it is the street one).

HKS has been working around the clock. I want to see the greddy turbo kit. It might be a small turbo due to limited space in the engine bay.

16G FTW!
