- Well Can you believe it's already been year?
That means Just over a year that I've been doing this whole TH-cam thing! You've seen reviews from people over the years and listened to their numerous problems about their "budget Turbo" build. Theirs always something that fails wether it be all the hoses that end up leaking from the poor quality hoses that come in the kits, or even worse, engine failure due to either poor quality parts/ install or their uncles, cousins brother that can tune the car for less.
Today we're Doing a Full Review on the HKS turbo FRS that I Installed last march, it was tuned immediately afterwards and has been running without skipping a beat ever since. The HKS turbo kit is hands down one of the best Turbo kit's off the shelf that I've ever seen for any car.
Discover the truth about the reliability of the GT86/BRZ in our comprehensive 1-year review! Uncover real-world experiences, maintenance insights, and expert analysis to determine if this sports car is truly dependable. Watch now for essential information every GT86/BRZ owner needs to know!

A Billy Interview!
You just can't top it!
Well Done.
Nice change of pace video. I like the follow up interview. Good work Billy.
Thanks man! Glad you liked it
currently have 94k on my daily driven FRS. might have to do more research on a turbo to make my commute better
Would definitely make the commute more fun.
Just Subbed
I'm saving up to turbo my Frs & maybe built the block from iag
100% worth it
Been daily driving mine for 3 years. Only issue ive run into was that the coil packs die early. Bought some delicious tuning ones now so lets see how it goes.
I've heard of this happening with any aftermarket header without heat shielding. You can order some embossed aluminum heat shield from Amazon for fairly cheap and faster it over the header. Or near the coil packs
@@Billy_Built giving that a try thanks for the tip.
Don't recommend delicious tuning. Bad customer service and one coil started failing me less than 2 years into service. Sometimes they are DOA for some customers. Best to use OEM, more so the 2017+ ones with either adapters if you use a early 2015 model or earlier or upgrade your engine harness to a the latest revision pre 2017 model release that features the upgraded coils and the revised connector.
We have almost the same history with the car. Since 2014, uel with a tune. Now I'm thinking about boost. But I'm scared of blowing it up haha
@@SangVanN That's awesome! Fortunately I have other project cars that keep me busy but I still want to fund boosted daily for myself lol
This build is an inspiration, but the fact that I dont have e85 in my country keeps me away from turbo mine.
Water methanol can act as a good substitute for E85. Just make sure it's setup properly.
@@Billy_Built Ye water methanol is very popular here, will have to set the car pretty good before i make the jump
Nice video the spool sounds so good. Do you know which RCE coilover is he on? The super street-1 or tarmac 2 club sport?
Thanks! unfortunately, I am not totally sure .
Cool blue
i was wondering what front bumper you guys had on it?
It's just a lip with a FRS bumper
@@Billy_Built thanks 🤦🏽♂️
greddy lip I think is what he says in the vid
@@Tentativ3 yessir!! Thanks for watching🙏
What BOV do you have? Who was your tuner in Fl? Thanks
@@ptshotsun This kit doesn't come with a BOV. Hence there isn't one installed. The tuner was Zack at CSG.
You should daily drive the z 😂
That's on my list of things to do!
@@Billy_Built don’t recommend 😂it’s better just to keep it as the garage queen and take it out on holidays or when u want to have fun
Good luck bill 😎
