i thought so myself, was actually going to just flat out buy the frs but i have enough cars taking up space in my driveway lol. the evo had a lot of work that needed to be done and the amount of money i have spent on it maintenance wise far exceeded the "fun" stuff that i applied.

a full custom exhaust (straight to the turbo), new mani, shep street trans, blitz induction kit (when i wasn't running tune for straight filter off the turbo), and several nice tunes (done by topspeed in GA) made it A LOT of fun. never got the final numbers though with just a catback, test pipe, and tune i was putting down 300awhp/279awtq (mustang dyno also) so who knows what it did with the rest. all other tunes were street tuned.

but with power steering pump problems, i/c pipes that needed replacing, high mileage, and misc aesthetics issues that just bugged me it was time to let it go.

the frs has potential, maybe not nearly as much as the evo did but, i'm fine with that.
