Sadly, no performance numbers up yet... but can I get a HELL YA?!?!? This is EXACTLY what I have been looking for. The BRZ doesn't need that much power, but this should give it a nice push. The SC should keep that nice torque curve too. I guess we'll just have to wait to see the numbers though!TWIN SCREW SUPERCHARGER - The twin screw (positive displacement) supercharger provides unrivaled low and mid range torque while still providing impressive peak power. The proprietary internal design of the supercharger offers exceptional isentropic efficiency when compared to other supercharger and turbocharger designs and only requires servicing every 30,000 miles!
INTEGRATED INTERCOOLER - The intake manifold features highly efficient Laminova® liquid to air intercooler cores inside (Stage 2 only).
FUEL SYSTEM UPGRADES - The Stage 2 kit includes high flow injectors and a fuel pump to support higher horsepower levels.
TUNING - All kits include a professionally engineered EcuTek calibration to provide optimum performance and "OEM" driveability.
OEM AIRBOX - The original airbox and MAF sensor is maintained on the suction (cold) side to prevent damage to sensitive electronics, maintain OEM appearance and provide excellent air filtration.
HIGH PERFORMANCE INTAKE MANIFOLD - The purpose built intake manifold is a direct replacement and provides superior performance over the stock intake manifold.

With at least 3 different kits coming out, this summer should be very interesting for the BRZ twins...

Re: Innovate Motorsports: We got your memo: SC kit for the B
Love the "oem" ish look. This seems like a no brainer place to put the blower.
I would like to see more s-chargers in this location and I would like to see more t-chargers in the new oem location (lower front of engine).
I don't like when they try and cram them high and in front of the engine.

Re: Innovate Motorsports: We got your memo: SC kit for the B
Will this fit on my wife's 2012 impreza? There are similarities with the FA (BRZ) and FB20 (Impreza) engines...would be a nice little sleeper to SC on the new impreza/crosstrek!

I'm guessing not. FA is Direct Injection, FB is not... yet AFAIK.

Re: Innovate Motorsports: We got your memo: SC kit for the B
It would bolt on right? Innovate Motorsports would need to engineer the EcuTek calibration for the non direct injection FB...but is probally not worth the effort since not many people would spend the money to SC their impreza.

No, DI requires very high pressure fuel pumps, lines, etc. Definitely would not just bolt on.

It's a completely different engine. If you want more power out of that engine Subaru sells a WRX.

Re: Innovate Motorsports: We got your memo: SC kit for the B
The SC kit from Flying Miata, complete with parts and tune is 5.1k. Considering it's a complete kit and pretty much race proven, I don't think it's a bad deal.
WRX/STI: (new)
Turbo: 1-2k
Exhaust: 1k
Tune: 500-1k
Intercooler: 500-1k
Injectors: $800
Fuel pump: $90
Suddenly 5k doesn't seem so bad...

Re: Innovate Motorsports: We got your memo: SC kit for the B
That Miata SC kit is so complete they even include zip-ties. The only thing I'd do is machine the logo off the intake and have it painted in black crinkle-finish to match the rest of the engine bay. Not that I've though about this a lot...

I would consider trading in my G37 for the BRZ with the S/C. The Infiniti is nice, but it's a big and heavy car. Something lighter and smaller is starting to tempt me.

It's more that you have to spend it in one big lump rather than broken up over time.Sabre wrote:The SC kit from Flying Miata, complete with parts and tune is 5.1k. Considering it's a complete kit and pretty much race proven, I don't think it's a bad deal.

But I still think that's a lot to spend making your car a little faster.

Re: Innovate Motorsports: We got your memo: SC kit for the B
Actually, you can buy everything on that list separately. The Intercooler you can add without a tune. The rest you can add individually with the exception of the turbo (you need to do the rest before that) and you'll just need slight tune tweaks.Raven wrote: It's more that you have to spend it in one big lump rather than broken up over time.
But I still think that's a lot to spend making your car a little faster.
The above, on a STI, will get you to an easy 400AWHP, stock they are 225AWHP.... so that's not a little faster...

And as a percentage, I don't think a miata SC or this one for a BRZ will be as much bang for the buck as a STi.

The guys over at Edmunds installed one of these on their long term BRZ.

2013 Scion FR-S: Driveability With Supercharger
Looks like a great kit, I just wish it came with factory tuning and cooling.Edmunds.com wrote:But the supercharger install has brought on some low-speed drivability issues. The kind of issues that when you're at full song, you never, ever notice.
It's mostly just at takeoff from a stop. There's some occasional jerkiness to the throttle delivery as you get going, and it can make the FR-S hard to drive smoothly.
I imagine with a little work this can be tuned out. Plus, it's not enough of a nuisance to make me want to stop driving this car.

Re: Innovate Motorsports: We got your memo: SC kit for the B
I bet 99% that is a tuning issue. The hardest part about tuning any modified car is the low end. It takes me no time at all to tune the high end, but low is a b*tch.

Re: Innovate Motorsports: We got your memo: SC kit for the B
There are...
Larger injectors don't usually spray well (this is changing) at low flows
Engine/coolant/cylinder temperatures (during warm up)
Because things are happening slower, you feel more
Airflow isn't as consistant
Outside temp matters more
etc. etc.
