TR G670 Dual Ceramic Ball Bearing (DCBB) Turbo Kit for the 2022+ Toyota GR86 & Subaru BRZ (Billet Wheel & Billet Actuator)

How much power will I make on pump gas?

With a quality tune and exhaust, many builds see roughly 300–325 whp on 91/93 at about 10 psi. Results vary by dyno, altitude, fuel quality, and supporting mods.

______________________________________________________________________________________________

Can I run E85 on the stock FA24?

Yes, with the proper fueling upgrades and a professional tune, stock engines commonly achieve roughly 370–410 whp. Always monitor temperatures, fueling, and maintenance intervals.

______________________________________________________________________________________________

Is this kit street‑legal?

This product is intended for off‑road/competition use only where permitted. Verify local regulations before purchase and installation.

______________________________________________________________________________________________

Will this work with the automatic transmission?

Yes. Proper tuning and thermal management are important. For manual cars, consider a clutch upgrade as torque increases.

______________________________________________________________________________________________

What tuning do you recommend?

We recommend a professional EcuTek tune for best drivability, power, and safety.

______________________________________________________________________________________________

Has this kit been tested on the 2022+ GR86?

Yes. We have sold and supported installations for multiple 2022+ GR86 customers. The kit is fully compatible with the new platform.

______________________________________________________________________________________________

Does the kit really make 100+ horsepower on the stock fuel system?

Yes, the 100+ hp gain is achievable on the factory injectors and stock fuel system. No injector or pump upgrade is required for this power level.

______________________________________________________________________________________________

Do you recommend upgrading the fuel pump?

While the fuel pump is not required, we do recommend upgrading it for added reliability and headroom—especially if you plan to increase power later.

 

Wastegate actuator spring choice: 1.1 bar vs 1.3 bar (what customers need to know)
What the spring actually controls (and why it matters)

On a pneumatic internal wastegate, the actuator spring sets your gate pressure (often called base boost): the boost level where the wastegate starts to open because boost pressure overcomes spring force. Haltech describes it simply: changing spring pressure changes the default boost pressure, and when boost exceeds spring pressure the valve opens and begins regulating boost.

Choose 1.1 bar (16.1 psi) / Red if:

You want a lower boost map (street/traction/valet) around the mid-teens. Remember: you can’t go under the spring.

Your normal target boost is roughly 18–22 psi and you want good controller authority and flexibility.

You’re building a setup where drivability and multiple boost modes matter (daily + weekend map).

Choose 1.3 bar (19.1 psi) / Silver if:

You will not run low boost—your “low boost” is still ~19 psi or higher. (If you need 15–17 psi sometimes, don’t pick this.)

Your normal target boost is roughly 22–28 psi and you want:

less “work” from the boost control system to hit target, and

typically better resistance to the wastegate being pushed open early (especially in higher load / backpressure situations).

 

There are two different “maximum boost” questions people ask:

1) Maximum boost your boost control can hold consistently

Using the GFB rule-of-thumb (target boost ≤ ~2× gate pressure) :

With a 1.1 bar / 16.1 psi spring, the “control stability ceiling” is roughly ~32 psi (2 × 16.1).

With a 1.3 bar / 19.1 psi spring, the “control stability ceiling” is roughly ~38 psi (2 × 19.1).

Reality check: that does not mean “safe to run 32–38 psi.” It means beyond ~2× gate pressure, boost control tends to get inconsistent because the actuator isn’t receiving enough meaningful reference signal for correction. GFB explains that once you go beyond double, boost control becomes less stable and more affected by variables like RPM/load/backpressure.

2) Maximum boost your turbo/engine can safely run

That’s not spring-limited. It’s limited by:

turbo efficiency and speed/heat,

fuel quality and knock margin,

intake temps/intercooling,

exhaust backpressure,

engine/clutch/trans limits,

tuner strategy.

 

FAQ:

Can I run less boost than the spring rating?
No. Spring pressure is the lowest boost level you can reach.

 

Does a stiffer spring automatically mean higher peak boost?
Not automatically. It mainly raises minimum boost and changes how the wastegate behaves. Boost above spring comes from the control strategy.

 

Why do people say “don’t exceed 2× the spring”?
Because boost control gets less stable as target boost gets too far above gate pressure; beyond ~double you tend to lose correction authority.

 

What spring gives the best spool and boost stability?
A spring that puts gate pressure about 10–20% under your target boost is a strong general guideline for best performance.
