2013 Scion FR-S Storm Trooper Build

Also, I wouldn't buy a full out intake without a tune. From what I've found in the FT86 club forums is that more people than not end up with idle and stalling issues with an aftermarket intake without the addition of an ECU tune. And even then, the power addition is marginal at best. Toyobaru did a very good job designing the factory intake. Looks like if you're going to touch anything on the intake without a tune, a HF drop-in filter and the Perrin inlet tube get you the best bang for the buck. YMMV

 

No need to lie

 

I've heard great things about them from others who have owned Subaru's. And it was cost effective.

 

I'm not, this is my car. Why would it be for a wife/girlfriend?

 

x2, why would a person ever buy a car for a wife or girlfriend?

If I'm feeling generous they can drive it for an afternoon.

 

No female has driven my car...yet.

 

Your stock intake comes down into a fender and is fed from where?? Mine takes from open air in engine bay

I'm doing heat soak tests on my tC, I doubt it but the frs might be designed the same way??

 

it takes it from behind the front fender

 

Because its an ultra chick car.

 

I think the intake sucks from up under the front bumper cowl. Air filter attaches on the top driver's corner of the upper radiator support and sucks fro outside the engine bay.

 

You're free to think that. But I know all the FR-S owners on here are guys..

 

You...

 

Lucky, looks like I'm going to have to Fab something up for mine.

 

Teh latest addition to the girlfriend, she got a tailpipe job...

 

Lookin Good mang

 

It sounds awesome....

Definitely lets that subie motor sounds like a legit subie motor!

 

I like those wheels. The front lip looks nice too.

 

You have a CF hood?

 

mmmm.... I really want a painted Carbon fiber hood but I don't know how well they stand up in -55C weather. I want to have it painted too but would rather not have hood pins in it.. I'm not really a fan of them.

 

Here ya go, I know you could not get it to post earlier.
