The fa24 that they will use for the WRX will be superior in every way shape and form.
The fa24 for the BRZ will have new parts inroduced that would be found to be "weak points". No easy fix would be achievable.

This is what I meant by purposefully detuning an engine.
The 24 in the WRX (if they use the 24 in the WRX this is not confirmed) will be a totally different variant of the engine than the 24 in the BRZ or the Ascent. All the three will share is a basic block and some internals.
