Below there are a few links of the supercharger kit I used, as well as supporting modifications to run e85 and push a little over 300hp!

super detailed answer from someone who has done hella research and has the plan ready:
$6-15k. Depends how long you want it to last and how reliable u want it to be.
a JDL Turbo Kit can be like 4500ish on minimum requirements. And you need a tune, which can run around $600-1k. Oil catch cans or an AOS (air & oil separater), and that's just about it.
Now, a SAFE build, you NEED tires. And if you want tires, you need wheels. 245-255 are good sizes. Michilen pilot sport 4 S will prob be your best option just due to their outstanding grip in dry and wet (this tire is really only prime in states where you get minimal to no snow) Idk much about all season tires, I live in AZ.
Wheels and tires can be anywhere from $1200 used to 3 or 4k brand new w warranties and stuff
Flex fuel kit to run ethonal (e85 and stuff), will be about $500+
a clutch if you are going to be above 300whp, which most people will be (i haven't priced my clutch out yet as I haven't tested clutches to see where I want my bite point to be)
SUSPENSION is insanely important!!! This will greatly improve your handling and keep the car straight. without tires and handling, you WILL NOT be able to drive the car very hard. You can do pulls once you're in 3rd or 4th gear but they will likely be light. you will have to ease into full throttle or you will lose traction. and if you're driving w safety stuff on, like traction and stability control, it will basically just cut power to the engine/shmack ya wheels for a sec and stabilize the car.
and you will need some exhaust mods, you should be good with an overpipe and axelback MINIMUM, but for best airflow and obviously sound, get a full exhaust.
Now, this is my build priced out
Suspension: Fortune Auto 500 w/ swift springs ($2k)
Wheels undecided but around 1200-1600 for a set) but get 17x9 +35 or +40 if you want to track it, 18x9 or 9.5 +35 (+ is offset)
Tires: Michilen Pilot sport 4 S in 255/35 (you can get 245 too, im just maximizing grip. you cannot go above 255 on stock body. So ill be running 255/35 R 18
Exhaust: I have a JDL 2.5" ultra quiet front/overpipe combo ($850ish) and a nameless 3" catback ($1400)
Verus AOS is about $390
Turbo Kit: MY specs on my JDL Turbo kit is about 5700, I'm going equal length and recirculated with thermal coating on for heat dampening on the pipes.
Flex Fuel: I got a deal on my flex fuel kit and tune for $900 and it included an ecutek license that you'll need for the car to be tuned, its a one time thing.
I don't think I missed anything? But yea, can get pretty expensive if you wanna do it once and do it right. Do it safely and reliably
thank you for this.
Appreciate you taking the time writing all of this, Helps a ton.
@Kushobrz what abt breaks?
I just want to say Chris is such a genuinely good dude. Any time I’ve reached out to him via IG with questions or comments, he always takes the time to respond. You can tell his personality on camera is not a facade. Truly my favorite creator on all platforms. Keep doing your thing brother.
Got you bro! The least I can do for my supporters. ❤️
Truly rare, a lot of people don't have the personality to be a leader.
apart from crazy body kits and exterior mods done to frs brz n 86, ive always wanted to see highly modded interiors and different types of interior styles u could do with this fun car
I definitely gotta work on my interior haha. Some seats is on my list.
Not sure why but I always felt that this cars sweet spot is 270-300ish. Boosting my 2014 in the future for sure. Keep up the great content
You know it’s a good day when Chris borges uploaded 🔥
Ayy appreciate you for coming thru 🫡
I think i’ll be speaking for alot of people, but we need more of these driving and talking vlog, just so nice to watch. Maybe just include some more driving, it was really entertaining seeing you rip through those corners. Great work man👌
Glad you enjoyed bro! I’ll keep this in mind. 💯
I have a 2013 ‘10 series FRS with 178K that I daily and plan on boosting after I re-do timing and add a couple upgrades.
Yours is just absolutely stunning and sounds amazing dude, much love!
Mans that crazy it's been two years. I remember I was watching you put the vortech supercharger and now you've gotten three different cars since
🥲🥲🥲🥲
It was a combination of yours and Robbie Ferreira's videos that made me go for the Vortech kit. I don't regret it at all! Cheers from the UK 🇬🇧 Keep up the good work dude 👍
Recently just copped an 86 bro. Watching your videos for some inspiration for my upcoming build 💯
Ayyy congrats man! Best wishes on the build. 🫡
I just finished boosting my brz, kit was used from a friend he only ran for 500 miles. $2500 for kit, 3bar/titanium wrap, turbo blanket was $200 and $950 for the tune, and then probably $100 on parts store runs hahaha. So right around 4k
Any supporting mods?
@@chris_borges just an air oil separator
I like the canards and splitter, but just the bumper itself ( like you had for a few months) looks so dope🤤
After looking back on old pics it looks naked without the splitter! 😂
Honestly Tj and you were the reason I wanted to boost my 86! Ended with the Jackson Racing Supercharger and I love it! It does become pricy though when you want to add more power but I feel like it’s worth it, especially if you love the platform. Also are you running an AOS on your SC kit? Love the video Chris! ❤
Thanks bro!! I’m running a regular Cusco catch can.
The realest car vlogger out there! I wanna start my own channel but really don’t know how to start 😅 I hope you read this comment homie & hopefully you can make a video on how you started youtube!
If you look back my first video was a random install on a friends car! Hardest part is just taking that big step and starting! Just gotta do it. 💪🏼
@@chris_borges thanks dude! Will definitely dig into your older videos! Appreciate the reply 🤝
I’ve been looking at the vortech kit for so long now this vid helped me a lot
Best sounding 🔥
Hella good timing of this video bro, I’m really tempted to get a brz or the 2022 brz 🤔 gotta come see you so I can make a decision 🙌🏾 ( can’t wait to see what new part is on the brz 👀)
Hard choice man hard choice!
LETS GOOOOO!!! Need to manifest this kinda energy. Keep grinding brotha!
Much love bro! 🤝
The build just goes insane 😮💨
🫡❤️
Thank you for making this vid im deciding on a supercharger or a body kit
hard choice 🫠
That video was sick seeing you driving the car you should do more vidéo like this...keep up the good work 👌
thanks man!
Love the frs/86 I have been watching you for 3 years ever since you have got the black pant on the frs keep up the good work🔥🔥
Throwback! Appreciate you for sticking around! 🫡
🔥🔥 I’m lookin to boostin my 2020 86 probobly next yr
Big moves!
that silent sneeze sound the SC makes is best thing in the world. CHHHHH
just as i lose motivation to build my brz, chris comes through, love you bro
love you 🫶🏻
Love the vids bro keep up the great work can't wait to have my car one day u inspired me for a wrx and kinda a frs can't wait to meet u one day to bro
Appreciate the constant support my bro. 🫡
@@chris_borges yessir I got u ima be here for the rest 💯
Gonna pass it. I could take that shitload money (to me) and put it for a down payment for GR Supra. But I appreciate your honesty about prices and such, so many get caught just buying the kit and not the supporting mods.
Are they really that cheap in America? In Australia an 86 is about 25k AUD for a decent one, with an additional 10-15k for all the supporting mods and your boost kit and tune, that’s for a pricey one to.
So you’re looking at 40k vs a new Supra which is 90k. Not to mention a boosted 86 has more power and less weight than a Supra
@@sambutler1794 Aussie bros are fucked up with their value, i could get GR Supra used for 50k. 3.0 turbo with warranty
Frs is such a awesome build has come a long way!! 🔥🙏🏽
Been a long journey 🫡
the only camber that is actually acceptable looking
Bro my car stays empty/clean of any garbage or cups or whatever lol, it drives me nuts having a cluttered car, plus I like driving with the windows down an things would be blowing all over or out the car lol🤟🏼😂
wearing the brz shirt and seeing a noti for an upload, couldn’t get any better 🔥🔥
Ayyy! Real one.
thank you so much for making this video. i hope to get my frs soon
much love man!!
320hp nice numbers! Have you make some changes with transmission ? Does it handle that power with no issues ? Thanks!
I’m early for once 👀 hopefully I get to see the FRS or BRZ at San Clemente cars and coffee next Saturday when I fly down to Cali 👀🤞🏽
Ayyy might have to hit that up! 👀
@@chris_borges bet! I got M4 on Turo you can you drive it you want too! 👀
Fire frs 🔥👌
Thanks bro!
Hey Chris just wanted to know, is this turbo kit carb legal? If not how do you get around emission inspections? I always consider keeping my BRZ to code when it comes to Mods Being that we both live in Southern California, state refs and smog checks are the last thing I want to worry about but would love all the benefits of adding some power to the build. Appreciate you sharing this with us and would love to get to know more about your build someday ! Thanks again.
Okay need everyone’s input for as wide data as possible: at what point do these engines start to blow? Transmission?
It seems, for any FI kit on stock PSI, E85, nets you in the low to mid 300’s. Is that accurate,
You’re right on low to mid 300s. It’s not recommended to push 350+.
chris your next build should be a scion tc 👀
Had one before my FRS!
Love your videos bro keep up the good work
Thank you sm!
did you ever upgrade your internal parts? piston, rods, etc. ??
what kind of exhaust are you using? It sounds real nice
Still so amazed by this car everyday
😬😬😬😬
You should make a video on how you kept the cars reliability with almost 140k miles. My car has been through 2 engines and on my 3rd one now, with only 35k miles. I do the maintenance and all of that, change oil every 3k miles and just confused. Car doesn't have warrenty anymore, so next engine is out of my pocket 😂
Do you track the car? How do you go thru so many engines lmao
@@Flunoir I ha taken it to the track 3 or 4 times & also taken it to a few drift events throughout the past 4 years, but on a daily basis I actually take very good care of the car. I keep the playing for the track because of a few things that have happened with friends and them losing there life.
So yes I have taken it to a track 3 maybe 5 times, and also drifting the same (3 or 5 times) but that is nothing near enough to cause me to go through 2 engines already.
@@Flunoir Mostly I think I just got unlucky..... The first time the engine blew they just repaired it, the 2nd time the engine blew they put an entire new engine in the car and it has been running amazing without any issues the past 15k miles. So I may have just gotten unlucky, but still Id like to know if I am not doing something. I just change oil every 3k, check the fluids every month or 2, do 6 month check ups with mechanic and wash the car a lot because I am a car guy that likes a clean car lmao
@@DanDoesGame I also think you got unlucky. These cars are solid and reliable even if you track as long as you take very good care of them. Glad to hear you’re doing better now.
@@DanDoesGame wait what oil do you use? Brand and weight please.
Big question, does your car still have A.C.?
That sound thooo😮💨😮💨🔥
Your cars are always built clean
🫡❤️
Yeahh was waiting for this video keep it up bro 💯
Got you 🤝
one of the best car yt in the game ‼️💯💯
Real one 🤝
That super vrz is too nice
This was a great video 👍🏾 Ik that this car isn’t know for its 0-60 but what is its time with the supercharger and support mods?
Haven’t tested!
As always looking and sounding like a mfing space ship 🚀 🔥
💨💨💨💨💨💨
Yo if you don’t mind me asking, how did you boost and do everything to your car working at Pizza Hut? I’d like to know any tips or tricks that might help me save up to boost mine one day.
Jackson Racing is where it’s at for the ZN6 chassis
💨🔥
Hey @Chris Borges.
So I’m thinking about buying this 2014 Scion frs, is has a vortech super charger like yours and has already been tuned. Is there anything I should be looking at before I buy. I don’t know much about superchargers and I’ve been doing a lot of research. So far it seems they can be reliable depending on your driving style. I value prolonging the engine life as much as possible of course some occasional pulls. I don’t want to beat it to the ground.
What I want ask is there any advice you can give me looking at the engine. Not just the super charger but add things that should be there to make everything work efficiently. Thank you
Just saw the street hunter gr86 wide body kit. Is that why you went to TJ recently?!
You should do 2017 manifold with grams tb that would be sick!
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Sick vids bro worth the like! Cheers
Ayy much appreciated!
100k here WE come
🤝🤝🤝🤝
Heres a dumb question. Where did you get the ph holder and what's it clipped to? Ja
I forgot which one this was but now I ran scosche magnet phone holders!
Not on topic but I’m wanting to SC my Infiniti know it won’t be cheap but would be nice and more enjoyable and way faster than stock
Woulda been so fitting if the total was $8600 lol
another FR-S video 🔥🔥
Yessir! Got you.
When is the turbo gr 86??????
😬👀👀👀
A clean car is a happy car my guy hahaha I have the same issue
Yo what the hell you doing in my town in Bonita 😂
im surprised i dont see you at all, you're driving around otay area!
Yessir!
I’m looking into boosting my brz but I’m not sure if I would need other mods (upgraded radiator, oil cooler, etc.). Do you run any of these other mods with your vortech kit?
Not worried about drive train I recently put in a stage 2 exedy clutch kit and I won’t be doing dig pills so no need for axles lol but if someone could help me out I would really appreciate it 🙏🏼
It’s always recommended to have supporting mods when you’re boosting - if you have the money to buy the kit , you have the money to do it the right way
Hey man! So I’m actually running a mishimoto oil cooler that I forgot to mention and also a catch can is recommended. I’m still on Exedy OEM clutch and stock axles.
Mine costs 13k dollars ( turbo , supporting mods, mags and tires as well ). Mine is so simple outside just rims and tires nothing else other than that. It was professionally tuned and hit 329 at the wheel in pump gas ( it's also an Automatic tranny ). So far I'm having trouble on starting it, it takes me 3-6x starting it. For me if you would daily use ur frs/86/brz go for e85 and fbo, turbo/supercharger are the one who has a lot of money and time 😆😆😆. Remember you'll sacrifice the enjoy on handling, after I turbo my car it felt really more heavy ( even though its now faster). Make sure if you're planning to turbo ur 86/brz/frs , you should have an another car HAHAHA.
The FA20 has direct and port injectors. It can be tricky to tune cold/hot start on them. It's probably the injector scaling causing your issues. Your tuner may be able to clear that up for you.
@@justinclaiborne1716 oh I see thanks. I'm clueless abt that but thanks hahahaha. I'll go tell my tuner then.
hey whats up, i have a bit of a personal question, what country do you live in, because this country looks quite asf bro i want to live here
Question bc for some reason I’m confused. Did tuning it with the delicious flash and go tune you showed get it to 324hp on E-85 or did that just get it running right and then you got it tuned again for more power by delicious tuning
Flash and go!
Should install an ethanol gauge. Shows if you actually have 85 n such. And I ordered s1 3p, 18x11-28 and 18x13-33 but i like the centre cap you got, what kind is that so i can order it!? Thanks man
Sheeesh big specs! Center caps I got off of the previous meister L1’s I had for my BRZ. Not sure which name and model they are.
@@chris_borges thanks man ill look into a set, the open hubs on these are driving me nuts lol
come to oahu and i’ll show you around and the car community!!
Been to hawaii few times! Love it.
i feel like boosting stock body vs boosting wide body are two different things considering weight
True true
Now you need to do the engine bay/interior?
Sheesh 🤔 do I still want to vortech my 86?
Definitely needs a deep clean hahah
What exhaust you got on it
do you have the link where you bought more wheels bro?
How many tires do you go through if you daily this?
100k soon 🥂
yessir!
i think 8k just to get around 100 extra 🐎s isn’t really worth it, i would rather go turbo, it’s cheaper and you pull way more.
I definitely wanna try out turbo!
i didnt think it would cost more than like 4-5k all in because its a 4cyl that doesnt make much power. supercharging my old e92 m3 was less than this.
Maybe with used parts yes
Hey guys I’m trying to get into cars and I am not sure where to start learning any advice? I’m a younger guy also trying to get his first car and turn that into my project car any ideas?
Watch as many youtube tutorials as you can! That’s how I learned.
@@chris_borges thank you Chris I watch your videos and find you such an inspiration keep up the great work
What if I want to pro charge?
This video just made me more motivated , right now I’m working full time in Walmart because my goal is to buy a 2016 Scion FR-S and build it slowly but I need a couple grands to buy the car 😭
Edit: what is ur % of the windows ?
Do you have a hub and quick release for the steering wheel ?
If so can you send me on Instagram which one I need for a brz or frs?
Keep working hard bro you’ll get there! I got 5% all around and 30% windshield. NRG FRS/BRZ/86 Hub and quick release.
I feel like it's gonna be way more worth it on the 2nd gen
Can’t wait! I agree.
Kid everything you do looks real good on the car body and the power but man can you at least show ur car a bit of more love and clean the motor so it can match the outside .just saying 🤷🏻♂️ just a good advise .sweet ride 💪🏼
Definitely needs an engine bay detail 💯
What is your top speed in the car?
damnnn that color looks hella nice . what color is that?
thanks man! gloss ice blue by tinybot vinyl
How much did you pay for the vortex kit
I love that F*********** car so much and it ain’t even mines 😂
Hahaha means a lot man! 😂❤️
@@chris_borges def worth every penny for me to build something like that . I really want to know total for everything wheels , bags etc 🧐
turboing these cars or supercharging, if u go above like 340hp you ARE going to blow your shit up 99.99% of the time it wont take long. i know about 12-14 people who turbo'ed these and NONE of them lasted long. they're all running fully built engines only making like ~400 , or a swap. these engines are notoriously super weak.
supercharging is definitely the way to go. and methanol for cooling.
So even with fully built engines they blow??
More so when running E85, or less likely when using strictly 91?
💯💯💯💯💯
I supercharged mine and it threw a rod. Ended up going fully built engine with a turbo and I hope it lasts longer this time.
@@justinclaiborne1716 what stats were you pushing when that happened?
@@mresab1997 supercharged I was using the Jackson racing kit, but I had the high boost pulley and I was running flex fuel. My last Dyno showed 288hp/222tq, but I do think I was closer to 300 when it let go because delicious tuning had been tweaking my tune, and it felt faster to me. Failure was a snapped rod due to fatigue. Currently it's built with a JDL turbo kit, last Dyno was 377hp/322tq.
I’m buying the drip but you gotta get that sti at 100k subs 👀
100k gift to y’all 👀
Dont bother with turbo that ruins the experience but if superchargers are a million dollars for the brz frs its worth it
How many miles did you have on the frs when you boosted it?
I think a little over 100k
very worth track
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Bro why local E85 so expensive lately 😹
Still remember when it was below $1.90 🫠
is your 2022 BRZ tuned if so what tune do u have!?
No tune. Just an o2 spacer to prevent CEL.
@@chris_borges just that and it pops!?
👁👁
Time for some seats 👀
white? 👀
@@chris_borges white 👍
@@chris_borges I mean, it’d look good but high maintenance 🤔
what is your wheel setup bro
Work meister s1
FRS God 👐
Would u turbo charge your frs?
1000%
You stop. Stop it now gonna make me boost my 86
