Default getting called out by an frs and G8

how does a scion frs, and a G8 headers, tune stack up against a lid/exhaust/trail blazer stall ws6 ls1 trans am? are frs cars on par with say like....... s2000's? The frs guy called me out after he beat a stock older styled single cab 5.3 silverado that happens to be my friend. He said he thinks he "can take the 5.7"

you will bitch slap the holy hell out of the FRS...they are slower than new v6 mustangs

if by "exhaust" you mean you have stock manifolds then the modded G8 will make you look like the FRS if it's a v8 car, even the autos are fast...they are geared extremely well and make good power

FRS won't even be a race. Tc might be faster lol.. You should take the G8 as well.

Nowhere close. FRS runs 14.7 stock, S2K is 13.7-13.8.

A bolt on/tune g8 gt will probably walk you bad from a roll
Friend of mine has one with full bolt ons and a tune and it only runs mid 12s, but out on the highway it's always in the power. More power than your car and much better geared on the highway and the weight difference disappears quick.

Yep definitely quicker than FRS/86/BRZ/whatever you want to call it.

But they don't launch particularly well with glass diffs, but trap better than they should. Have pretty reasonable circuit speed, which is what they are made for, with pretty good gearing, so better for rolls. Stock for stock, seen them beating 350Z a few times which is surprising.

I prefer mine with an LS
