Guess what, not gonna happen! Shove it up your ass because its not coming mid life cycle. 

I agree.

That engine was not even an option when the FRS/BRZ was being developed. 

Here is a classic example of one of those idiots. Sure a similar sized engine exists, do you think it is any where close to cost effect to put it in mid life cycle?

It is when the car was built from the ground up not anticipating having that motor in it. Everything in the car was built to the current spec of na FA20. They would have to go over every part of the driveline to make sure it would hold up long term to an extra +100 lb ft of torque. The transmission, the half shafts,…

I don’t hate fun, I hate people who think it is as simple as adding a turbo mid life cycle. I work in the industry so it just frustrates me when I see idiots talking out of their asses on how “easy” it would be to turbocharge a mass produced product mid life cycle. 

OMG not the warranty on a $25,000 car!!!! What will I do with an out of warranty Toyota!!! I’m Bankrupt!

See point B. I agree, but that is how it is. A simple fix is available and it gives you +40whp and eliminates the torque dip.

I’m not saying Toyota should not fix the torque dip, but I am also saying there is a cheap fix in the aftermarket and its not as big of a deal as the internet haters would have people believe. 

I drive an E92 M3......no choice-supportive bias here, just someone who drove the car and liked it. Not everything needs to be a hellcat. 

You are talking about beefing up just about every part of the driveline so the parts last to warranty standards. You are talking about most likely new crash testing and certification to see how the new engine effects crashes. You are talking about many tiny R&D modifications which then go on down to the assembly line.…

Care to explain why it was not enough power, and what you replaced it with that was enough power? 

A. The torque dip is not some earth shattering thing. You have a shifter right next to you, use it!! Don’t be afraid to row those gears.

1. Mostly likely with both of those cars they went into production with those motors as planned options. So alot of the R&D was done with having to accommodate those engines as well as the base motors. Also, Pontiac is no longer with us so I think we know why they “could”. This is not me saying it could not be done,…

You do realize everything they would have to do to make that work and get that legally on the road right?

lol, that is how I feel some days. 

That has been fixed long ago. A simple tune and header and its gone, plus as a side benefit you get more power that you so badly want.

Clearly being nice has not worked, people have been saying the same idiotic bs for years now.

THAT’S NOT HOW THIS WORKS! THAT’S NOT HOW ANY OF THIS WORKS!

Off to copart looking for FRS/BRZ/GT86's.
