The WORKS Stage 2 Turbo Kit for the FR-S/BRZ takes the performance of our Stage 1 Turbo Kit to the next level with the addition of an air-to-liquid intercooler and a higher boost threshold. Stage 2 is for those who want more power than what our Stage 1 Kit provides, but still wish to retain its simple and minimally-invasive configuration. 

This kit utilizes a genuine Garrett GT28 journal bearing turbocharger to provide efficient, turbocharged power while retaining the OEM airbox, exhaust manifold, and secondary catalytic converter. Our team of engineers spent hundreds of hours in design, development, tuning, and testing to produce a simple and reliable turbo setup to enhance the driving experience of the your vehicle. This is the easiest-to-install, most cost-effective, and least-intrusive air-to-liquid intercooled turbo system available for the FR-S/BRZ. 

Notable Features:
  • 50-state smog legal under CARB Executive Order D-748
  • Genuine Garrett GT28 journal bearing, water-cooled turbocharger mounted rearward to maintain chassis balance and handling
  • Air-to-liquid aluminum intercooler with front-mounted auxiliary radiator
  • Internally and externally ceramic coated up and down pipes
  • Short length intake piping and efficient intercooler core minimize pressure loss/drop and increase boost response
  • Durable powder coated components with 4-ply silicone couplers and rolled edge hose clamps
  • Retains OEM airbox, PCV system, exhaust manifold, front pipe and both catalytic converters
  • Oil pan removal and wiring harness extension not necessary for installation
  • ~12 psi peak boost
  • Expect gains of ~90 hp, ~90 ft-lbs crank on 91 octane (R+M)/2 gasoline
    • ~55% power increase over stock
  • Includes all metric hardware
  • OEM/factory appearance
  • ECU calibration provided

We encourage the use of a high-flow air filter like the WORKS High-Flow Drop-In Air Filter with our kit. For track use, an oil cooler like the WORKS Oil Regulator/Cooler Kit ($50 discount when added as an option) and stiffer motor mounts are highly recommended. The significant increase in power should also be balanced with better braking performance like what our WORKS BP-1 Brake Package provides.

Please view our installation instructions for a deeper understanding of how minimally-invasive this system is: Installation Instructions PDF.

An ECU calibration is provided which is required for CARB compliance.

IMPORTANT NOTES:
This kit is not compatible with right-hand drive vehicles at this time. Please see our installation instructions for a more comprehensive list of vehicle equipment prerequisites.

Q&A:

Is this turbo kit smog legal?
Yes, this turbo kit is 50-state smog legal under CARB Executive Order D-748 and applies to model years 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016.

Does the kit come with an ECU calibration?
Yes, an ECU calibration is provided which is required for CARB compliance.

How long does it take to install the kit?
Depending on mechanical aptitude, installation should take between 12 - 16 hours.

Does installing the kit require any cutting, fabrication or wire harness extensions?
Very minor sanding, drilling a hole and cutting a bracket is required. No factory wiring harness modification or extension is necessary! And no oil pan removal or modification necessary! Please see our installation instructions (link above) for a description of required modifications.

Do I need to remove the front bumper for installation?
Bumper removal is required for Stage 2. Please see our installation instructions (link above) for a description of the installation process.

How does this kit retain the factory exhaust manifold / headers?
Our kit only replaces the over pipe from the exhaust system, leaving all other exhaust components intact.

How do the battery and ECU housing handle the added heat from the turbocharger?
The exhaust piping included in our kit is ceramic coated which cuts down on radiant engine bay heat significantly. We include a battery heatshield in the kit, have monitored battery surface temperatures after track sessions, and have found them to be a non-issue when using the heatshield. The injector ECU showed no heat effects either. We provide thermal wrap in our kit to protect all wiring in the area of the turbo.

What power gains should I expect?
Each vehicle is different, but typically you should expect an increase of ~90 hp, ~90 ft-lbs at the crank on 91 octane (R+M)/2 gasoline - roughly a 55% gain.

How is the drivability?
It is very smooth, factory-like drivability and pulls all the way to redline. We developed this kit to deliver a power level to match the capability of the stock chassis. 

How much boost should I expect?
Stage 2 has a peak boost level of ~12 psi.

Do I need to upgrade the fuel system?
No. The factory fuel system is adequate for 91 and higher octane (R+M)/2 gasoline.

Will the kit void my warranty?
In many cases the turbo kit could affect your dealer warranty for the motor which is no surprise. However it should not affect the warranty of other components due to the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. Consult your local dealer for specific questions.

Is there a warranty from WORKS?
There is a 12k mile, 12 month warranty against defects in parts.
