Surely 2750 pound car and 400rwhp would be in 10s...
Clearly you spend more time behind the keyboard then at the actually track.

If going fast was easy everyone would be doing it. This is NOT a AWD car so I don't see it touching 10s in its current configuration.. Low 11s yea. With more seat time we'll get the car in the mid to low 11s. But for right now we don't have to do shit because we are the fastest BRZ in the world.

Dog on the street - I don't think so.

Just because it doesn't make 20 PSI @ 3k revs doesn't mean it's not very responsive on te street. This size turbo is perfect for the everyday type person, great for auto cross, road course and when you need to lay the hammer down it's there.
