To think that the 86 won't get forced induction is crazy. A Fiat 500 can get a turbo but an 86 won't from the factory?

I never said the 86 wasn't going to get forced induction at all. Where did you read that lol? I said that a super charger would be more appropriate because the turbo would ruin the balance of the care with turbo lag.
Also, TRD much prefers S/C over T/C for that very reason. There will probably a TRD Supercharger developed for the FR-S, but it won't be a part of any trim level, just a factory add-on.
