With that said i highly doubt they will make turbocharger for brz. It literaly is designing a new engine compartment.

However im sure you will be able to use turbo parts from legacy engine on brz engine. Thus making it more reliable and capable engine for brz.


Let's play Find The Turbo on this factory EJ25!





Yeah, all Turbo Boxer engines have their turbos in unusual and impractical places. That's the fallacy of having an exhaust manifold on the bottom.
