Not in this car. WRX/STI to make a return to WRC with a 1.6L though, is more likely.
Is it common to do forged pistons on N/A? I'm much more in tune with factory FI cars as opposed to high output N/A.

Also does anyone know yet about the composition of the factory components? I.E. are the rods/crank/pistons forged, cast, molybdenum coated, etc. This would be on the normal GT 86, FR-S, BRZ.
