Seems really well sorted and sounds amazing. I really think an UEL exhaust and a turbo is a must for the 86/BRZ, not just because it lacks power but it adds emotion to it. Just listen to it when you go off the gas, it sounds so addictive. A great job that I feel like replicating in the near future. A specsheet of it would be so much appreciated.
@@shshh-fw9eh now I have problem deciding, I have about 30k kilometres to do timing change I was planning to do k swap, but when I hear damn sc whine it makes me Wana buy short block and slap SC on it...
Glad i came across this video ben thinking of getting the car ,i think i will also add a victor racing active wing to improve performance , thanks for the video really enjoyed it
Quality build! I'd like one of these at 340 but after a completely sorted Whiteline 96 STI at 340 with AWD I just can't justify it :/ just like I can't an S2000. When I live somewhere drier I'll go S2000 with 500 Turbo stock block.
@@Booka3141I agree with the comment. Supercharging keeps the essence of what they want with the car; instant power around corners and able to push the car to the limit daily. With a turbo it’s much harder to drive the car at its limit because you need to stay in higher rpms whereas superchargers give you that nice noise and linear power throughout the
Just one question. How ? How fa20 can handle 340bhp on stock internals ? Sounds really sick. I'm thinking to build engine to get 300whp and you get 340 on stock. Anyway great project at same time!
Hey! Running 340bhp on the FA20 is safe and ours has ran this for 8 years now. Its when you reach around 400bhp that the Rods can struggle. If you go above this then its advised to get forged rods. Drop us a follow on Instagram, would be great to follow your build!
@@mresab1997 Hi! Stock transmission is well up for the job! Map 4 is full boost, its spent plenty of time at full power. Handled 11 runs down santapod in one morning like a champ
Because it would make the car more expensive and put people off with the idea of paying a lot with a 'Toyota badge'. Manufacturers want to have OEM levels of refinement and reliability so by adding a turbo, that requires a stronger transmission+clutch, beefier prop shaft, beefier drive shaft, more cooling and heavier piping so that it can do several laps at a track without heat soak issues. All this adds complexity and weight which is not what the 86 is about. The 86 is a car that teaches drivers about RWD car control within speed limits, its not meant for spec sheet enthusiasts who want to think that they're a good driver with a car thats fast on the straights.
Toyota deliberately kept the GT86 simple because they knew that a lot of them would be modified. The tuning scene for these in Japan and the US is huge. There's so much you can do to them.
Because the Supra exists, why would they have a car with dam near equal weight and specs the fact is we will never get a factory turbocharged GR 86 from Toyota unless they do away with the Supra, also people miss the intended purpose of the 86 it’s supposed to be an affordable sports car key word is affordable if they add turbos they will have to change the whole drivetrain of the car and that will drive up cost just buy one and turbo it or supercharge it yourself.
@@cerogravity8653 gr86 should have made a 3.0 flat 6 300hp evolution of the 2.0 200hp engine. A true Porsche cayman competitor like originally marketed in 2012.
Dude the highest trim Supra only has like 320ish whp, why would they ruin sales of a car that’s alr not selling well by matching it with a car that’s only 2/3 the price?
With great difficulty and a lot of money, theres not many that recorded to go past 230hp NA, unless you mean around corners in which case, these are already really agile

i guess i have rare case of adiction for a supercharger whine
@@Prepelec Rare? May be, but count me in for supercharger whine too!

Looks and sounds amazing. Feel I want a GT86 in my life after watching this tbh.

Never a disappointment, Luke. Keep it up. 👍

Definitely time to buy another one Luke! Love mine!
I drove a stock gt86 it was the most disappointing car Iv ever driven it Badly needed more power.
Positive displacement supercharging these cars is by far the most fun. Turbocharging completely ruins it
don't be daft

@@drive-r hi! What about the transmission?
Also, how often over the span of those 8 years were you on map 3 (340)?

@@drive-r awesome! Thank you for the reply. What was the “full boost” pressure you ranv
@@mresab1997 Believe full boost is running around 22-23 psi

Can you make a fast brz without any boost??

@@Icemann336
after all turbo’s are for those who can’t build engines
Supercharging is the way to go for sure.
I want to buy this car but I’m just scared of getting a high mileage car and inheriting all sorts of problems
See man, this is what I was sayin, turbo it!
Stock M140i or this (purely on the drive)?

Absolute geek bro 🤣
As if the boxer isn't unreliable enough
Wow it's lasted longer than I thought
@@nico3727 Still going strong
Only the 2012/13 were unreliable,iv done 160k miles in my 2014 and never had any problems
187k miles on stock regularly maintained 2013 frs
You'd struggle to make that any uglier 😅
all a matter of opinion mate
oh you havent seen half of these then
Slow
It'll probably go ~170+ MPH? You think it's slow? It's a light car with plenty of power. Probably traction limited in the first 2 gears if not 3.
In all those years why would you not sort out that ugly interior, sick card none the less
Wow imagine spending all that money on that lol
Imagine being a car snob 🤡
much rather have a good looking car whit the one problem it has (power) solved.
They're not as fast as they look you mean
