I was surprised that it even made 200BHP! With the mid $25k range we've heard about for the last couple of years, if they make a STI version it's going to be well over $30k without a turbo or higher output engine. Plus all of the advertising is pushing the driving aspect while downplaying the lack of HP. Sure signs of no prospect for a power increase. I don't expect any different from Subaru on the matter either.

My point is if you start debating more HP and this car, you've lost any credibility to me. Comparing the FT86 to midsize sedans it just asinine.

Now aftermarket/modifying is a completely different story. Even I might add a turbo/supercharger someday. But I know better than to expect one from the factory at this point and after they went through all the work to build a highoutput N/A version for a very low volume car.
