Very hard to compare the two directly because they are so totally different. Just to name a few differences, the tC was FWD and turbo (about 300hp) and the FRS is RWD with around 200hp. The FRS is definitely more nimble and lightweight, making it easier to control/manipulate. Where the tC was big and heavy but fairly quick. Also, when I raced the tC, it was prepped by a team, in which, unfortunately, I had no involvement in how it was set up. Where with the FRS I have full control of what we test, how and what we change and when
If you're asking about lap times The best time I had in the tC, I think, was a 1:53.7 and the FR-S was a 1:58.2. But you have to also take into consideration we were running a very softer compound on the tC, and the FRS I had (very) used NT01's on it... I think with some hoosiers I could probably pull in a time very similiar to the tC.
