How to make power with your FA20D powered BRZ or GT86

So you bought your self a Gt86 or a BRZ, and you got use to the 200 crank horsepower within an hour of buying the car, so what should you do know? Well that obviously depends on budget and exactly what you want from your car. So what we are going to do today is go from basic mods to more extreme mods and explain all the mods you need, to go from 200hp to the crank all the way to 500 to the wheels and everything in between.

Okay so lets start by talking about the stock GT86 or BRZ, the FA20 make 197hp to the crank like I mentioned previously but that equates to around 155-160 on the wheels, which really isn’t impressive for a sports car, yes its small and light, but just about any hot hatch will drop a BRZ, I mean 0 to 100kph is reached in a sluggish 7.8 seconds. But don’t fear uncle chris is here with all the info you need to change your brz

This videos going to rack up a lot of attention

I feel like a supercharged stock motor with a better clutch running 300 whp is the way to go. The car with how light it is is the most balanced at 300 horses. Put it on coil overs and you have the best of both worlds handling and good power. Perfect for reliability while balancing budget and keeping the car balanced. If you bring it up to 500 your breaking things and you can’t push the car as hard in the mountains or on the track without worrying about killing yourself.

Idk about stock engine going up to 500whp. Unless you mean the block instead. I see people with bent and broken connecting rods around 300-350whp all the time. From everything I've seen, if you wanna go above 300whp, you're gonna want forged internals, or else you're playing a risky game. I have a buddy who just blew up his motor at about 320whp

Don't need to change out the fuel pump unless you're pushing at or beyond ~450HP per Counter Space Garage

Stock air intake is already a cold air intake. Very little room for improvement other than changing the filter and maybe the snorkel.

[JayPimen]

Anything above 300whp I suggest build the engine it’s going to blow, 300whp is safe with stock internals

[jesse]

you can go way more hp on N/A set up... but of course you need to build the internals and go for higher rpm 😋

[kirkhohing]

That 200whp build is flawed. Each gain is at different parts of the hp curve. You just can't add the gains together.

I own your not tracking....its still an amazing handling fun car...IMO just do the basics....fix the torque dip

[samstedman]

Seeing how much work you have to put in just to end up like all the other poorly modded brzs out there makes me just wanna save the money on the mods and just get a used Cayman

[kaumohlamonyane]

I know my south africans when I hear them😉

[kevinn]

these numbers are off, headers and e85 gets ya around 190whp at most

[David-ohj]

You forgot to upgrade the cams and the injectors and the intake manifold before going to boost.

[stuffyvr]

i would be happy with 350-400hp boosted for daily use and for more i would rather engine swap it.

[loganh]

When bro said cai I clicked off the vid 🤣

[remyche]

Just g16 swap it. Engine from gr yairs/corolla stock 300hp, and lighter then the boxer.

[madmagician]

CAI don't do shit for these cars, if anything you lose power. maximum you can get from headers and a tune is like 15hp, full exhaust and e85? low 190's if you're lucky. this is all bullshit...

[elcascoviejo]

cansome one can tell me how mutch can the diff hold?

[blade]

a lot of money for nothing you have more with other engine...the car is bored
