Since the 2013 Subaru BRZ and the 2013 Scion FR-S
met the public last month, all people want to talk about is when a
turbo or supercharged version is coming out. It seems 200 hp and 150
lb-ft of torque just isn't enough.
Japanese firm Gazoo Racing
decided not to wait for the factory and built a supercharged—and
turbocharged—Toyota 86 (our Scion FR-S) that it's calling the Gazoo
Racing Sport FR.
The result of the build is a power output of 320
hp and 310 lb-ft of torque. That's more than enough to dominate the
local Mazda guys at your home track, though you probably won't be in the
same class, anymore.
The supercharger handles the boost in the
low revs, while the turbocharger takes care of the power in the upper
ranges. Gazoo also reprograms the engine-management software to make it
work and adds a high-flow exhaust system.
Not content with leaving
the body in stock form, Gazoo added a full bodykit, upgraded
suspension, better brakes, lightweight wheels and a racing spoiler.
These
parts probably won't be available from the factory. But since Toyota's
TRD will race four cars in the upcoming Nürburgring endurance races, we
hope that it will make some factory hop-up parts available to the
public.
