Thats because you didnt buy a performance part lol.



BRZ/FRS needs boost to make any type of power everyone knows it.

If you put it that way then I think both cars would still fall into the same category. You can spend 10K on both and still make 0 horsepower.

Now we all know that the only way to make power is by applying dohc vtec stickers. On a serious note, what mod did the frs get to add up to 2600?

I didn't buy the magazine but I think it was test pipe, intake, exhaust and maybe something else. It was in import tuner or super street. It's on the newsstand.
