nope, I am not sure how someone can utilize an ESC for track use since recharging might/should be an issue...and I think that 30whp increase with header and tune is overly optimistic and doesn't completely eliminate the TQ dip, I saw many dyno graphs with aftermarket headers and TQ dip was still there maybe with an UEL headers it can be eliminated but in that case car only makes additional 10-15 hp at top end (as opposed to EL headers)..

I would gladly pay the premium for the reliable NA power if it was offered from Subaru or Scion, like a "performance package" to gain 40-50 hp ..then again a "linear power" ..I believe this car deserves S2000 engine in it
