I'm afraid you might be right. A low boost SC or TC had originally been a consideration. Just not sure I want to commit to the potential issues with aftermarket FI. Personally not a fan of Nissans, but I hear you.

From my reading it is possible to get about a 20% increase torque increase from headers/exhaust/tune in the "torque dip" and a 20+ WHP increase in the top end. I would think the ol' butt dyno would feel that, no?

Not quite in the same category as the BRZ, but if Volkswagens were more reliable the Golf R would probably be my 2nd choice.
