I wrote about this in a thread I made about switching from an FRS to a '16 STI.
If the only thing you really want from the FRS is more power, I'd just add the FI to the vehicle and then have everything you want. Though, I personally wouldn't care for any more than the ~250whp range and I'd be sure to add the appropriate supporting modifications to make sure everything stays in check.
If you want more power and then switch to a new chassis, you'll likely be happy with the increased power... but left wanting more in terms of the chassis.
For me, I just wanted something that was more practical and "ready to go" out of the box because I was tired of sinking $20k in performance mods on $25k cars. If all I wanted was more power, I would've kept the FRS. But power wasn't an issue. I had a '13 FRS with Tomei EL headers, GS intake, Nameless axleback, and an OFT stage 2 91 octane tune and was plenty happy with how it felt.
At the end of the day, it comes down to want you want/need from a vehicle... and what your end goals are.
