Who wants a turbo can get a WRX or WRX STI, or swap the WRX/STI turbo/engine on the BRZ/STI.
I see it rather this way:
BRZ: NA 2.0l, 200 PS, RWD
BRZ STI: NA 2.5l, 250 PS, RWD
WRX: FI 1.6l, 250 PS, AWD
WRX: 2.0l, 300 PS, AWD

I'd rather have the STI be NA 2.0L, bigger cams, more compression, higher redline (8500  ) and 240-250hp.
