And in the same vain, I would rather have the STI version of the BRZ keep the FA20 and increase the redline to 8500 than go with a 2.5L FA25 and lower the redline. Guess it all comes down to personal preferenece but I'm glad they kept the engine 2.0L and high revving.
Doesn't the JDM EJ207 come with a twin-scroll? Heck yeah I'd bet most people would pick that over the USDM EJ257
