Looking back at when the 86 was released, everybody thought the WRX FA20DIT would be to go-to performance swap for our cars. Seven years later, and -AFAIK- nobody's got it to work properly.

These FA24s might very well be the same story. Can it be done? Of course. Does it make any sense vs. a low-boost supercharger kit that's known to work? Probably not.

That's also a byproduct of running DI. You can crank up the compression ratio (and thus efficiency) without concern for knock, even if you're not looking for maxxxx hp.
