Where should I take my FRS?
Time for some bolt ons and possibly a tune...don't want to boost anything.
What shops should I check out locally for parts and install, preferably experienced shops with this platform.
Thanks

I'd imagine that FT86 Club Vancouver is the best place to ask, but given that the FRS is basically a Subaru, I'd hardly think you can go wrong with HBL Autosport since they work on a LOT of Subies.
Our forum sponsor, The Speed Syndicate (TSS), have worked on a lot of FRS / BRZ as well, so they'd obviously be another good place to consider.

I highly recommend The Independent Speed Shop for your tuning needs  Bill has done quite a few FRS/BRZ with Ecutek with great results.
+1 to TSS for mechanical work

For mechanical work, +1 for HBL Autosports. They maintain my FR-S and Subaru Legacy. One of the guys who work there have a BRZ. The shop owner's whole family drives Subarus. 80% of the cars I see getting worked on there are Subarus.
For parts, I don't really go anywhere locally, and it depends what you're specifically buying. I usually order from US vendors and ship to/pick-up from Point Roberts. FT86 SpeedFactory (or their Canadian dealer FT86 Motorsports), CounterSpace Garage, FR Sport, KamiSpeed, OAKOS Automotive, and Rally Sport Direct are some of the major vendors.
For an ECU tune, a lot of people drive down to Drift-Office in Auburn, WA, about 3 hours away. Nothing but good reviews about their tuning services. They must've tuned hundreds of FR-S/BRZ's by now.
Also, ft86club.com/forums is a good resource.
