I do imagine that this engine is underrated or choked up pretty badly due to emissions, toyota knows most of us on the forum and a good amount of people not on the forum will put some sort of exhaust on this car to make it sound better and louder, if its not underrated i do expect good gains from bolt ons
my celica was rated 181 hp from the factory - 15% drive train loss = 153 whp
but my car dynoed from 158-162 whp bone stock on different dynos...
now im running 183 whp from bolt ons alone(192whp with pfc) which puts me at 210(220 with pfc) crank hp from a 1.8L
that's 116.6 hp per liter
so getting the ft86 up to 230 crank hp shouldn't be a problem (since the ecu is programmable(freed up) i can see 250 crank hp with cold air, headers , high flow exhaust. 125 hp per liter would be some pretty damn good efficiency
all talking in theory though, but all possible especially if the engine is underrated then i could see more gains...
for example
2012 ft-86
say if it were 2660 lbs
had 212 whp after mods and tune
= 12.547 power to weight
2012 mustang v6
3453 lbs
259.25 whp (after 15% drivetrain loss, being optomistic ofc and not using 20% drivetrain loss)
= 13.319 power to weight
2013 genesis coupe 2.0T
3294 lbs
233 whp (assuming under the same drive train loss as the mustang)
=14.092 power to weight
