From http://www.zeroto60times.com/: 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 2.0T Premium 0-60 mph 6.0 Quarter Mile 13.9 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 2.0T Turbo 0-60 mph 6.9 Quarter Mile 15.1 2012 Hyundai Genesis 3.8 Sedan 0-60 mph 5.4 Quarter Mile 13.8 2013 Scion FR-S (Manual) 0-60 mph 6.2 Quarter Mile 14.5 2013 Subaru BRZ (Manual) 0-60 mph 6.1 Quarter Mile 14.6 That looks pretty competitive to me. Add the OFT and ESC, and your 0-60 should be in the mid to high 5s and the 1/4 right around 14 flat. The OFT tune bumps the redline up about 100-200 rpm, thereby allowing you to hit 60-61 mph in 2nd before fuel cut off - cutting even more time than the power/tq increase causes.

However, based on what I've read about track use, it would probably be fine for that as well, as long as the ambient temp is 80 degrees or below. The overheating has happened occasionally on the track - but it's typically been after 10+ minutes of running hard in 90+ degree weather - at least from the reports in the 100s of pages of thread I've read.

I see C7 Vettes, GT3 Porsches, Ferraris, Lambo, etc getting passed by the above mentioned vehicles on the highway all the time. You know why? Because those guys do not have any thing to prove and they know that they are already ticket magnets even when driving slow. The only idiots I see trying to keep the SUVs behind them are guys in Civics and other riced out cars. Oh and GTRs. For some reason, GTR drivers seem to have some issues with being passed. Insecurity? Little d1cks? Dunno! Hell, the cars I see going the fastest on the highways are usually the Prius. Go buy a Prius.

Now a few years back I had a 2005 GTO with a 6.0 liter 400hp LS2 and a six speed, and that car never had to settle for merging from behind. It just takes a crap load of torque and horsepower, which is very hard to find in a $25,000 lightweight small displacement sport coupe. |

Not knocking the Jag, love the brand, and the F Type is a stunning car. But, truly, this little BRZ/FRS is stunningly good. |

Seriously that car is hideous. Why people put wheels like that on this car I do not know. In a thread talking about not enough power... Haha. Big staggered wheels will kill your acceleration.

Scion was talking about adding 30 more horses, but that talk has silently gone. If they could eventually match it to the WRX, I'd be happy. 250 or 268. I like the price point, but if started at over 30K, the targeted audience would not be interested and sales would look dreadful. Boys....and girls, I don't think we'll ever see the amount of horsepower we dream of having in this vehicle.
Who's to say they won't release two versions, the basic FRS and the suped up version with more horsepower and TURBO! The price would certainly rise, but production would be limited, so the wealthier could buy something that satisfies more their taste, and I could still live the dream in a car I can afford. I read an article not too long ago that there is the potential Scion and Subaru will go their own ways in the future. There's pros and cons to that. I think for Subaru, they'd introduce an all-wheel drive BRZ, while Scion would evolve the FRS into something more amazing than itself in terms of performance and design, examples include the Toyota Spyder and Supra (fyi, Scion is owned by Toyota). Overall, I feel the competition between the two would drive them and have a end result of two great products. |

I've concluded that much of this community has developed a complex regarding the lack of power. It's supposedly not a problem for them, so it shouldn't be a problem for you. Oh, you want to talk about it? I'm going to be intentionally obtuse and argumentative...
Right... My plan is pretty simple. Stock intake, stock exhaust, stock fuel, stock clutch... Just bolt on an innovate stage 1 and a subaru forester oil cooler. That will save me the fitment issues associated with bumper removal and hopefully satisfy my urge for acceleration. I'm hopeful that will make the car run high 13's. That shouldn't ruin anything about the car and make it pass most cars that aren't trying to race me, haha.

I might go for Jackson Racing over Innovate. It's supposed to be a much better system, and very easy to install.
For myself, I'm staying NA. Typical stage 2 bolt ons and a flash. |
