It would be interesting to see what sort of impact on the bottom line it would have been if the original Twin had more like 165HP without Toyota's dual injection... then years later add that for a bump to the 200 we have now. 100hp/l is a good number and hard to go past that without a displacement bump or FI. If they intentionally crippled the engine at initial release they would have had some growing room. The question is who would buy a 165HP car that is 2750lbs? Probably not many even back in 2012.
