Have they come up with a Turbo Kit or Supercharger for the FR-S and the Subaru version yet?

That car needs 300HP +. It would be unbeatable with the way it handles.

I’m sure there’s a kit out there. There’s a BRZ running Pirelli World Challenge, and that car has a supercharger.

On my way home from work today I turned off the traction control and simply floored it (it’s a manual, btw) and it fishtailed so bad when I shifted into second gear I almost went off the road.

I confess I should have had both hands on the wheel, though. First time I ever turned off the traction control. I gotta get some practice in...

There is a video of an FRS with an aftermarket turbo. It’s pretty funny. 450 hp:

You would want stickier tires, though.
