turbo for subie, supercharge for Toyota?
Auto Spies says.............................
Considering Subaru first debuted the joint-

But according to 009's post yesterday, this isn't over until the fat lady sings.
009's post from Autocar stipulated that
[COLOR=blue !important][COLOR=blue !important]Toyota's [COLOR=blue !important]racing[/COLOR][/COLOR][/COLOR] division, TRD, is working on a supercharged, high-performance GT 86.
Looking at both base cars from the Tokyo Motor Show, it's clear that they're nearly carbon copies of each other. So, we know each automaker likely didn't spend much time differentiating their products in that regard.
I think we're going to see some significant differences when it comes to the high-performance variants.
We already know Toyota is gunning for supercharging, while Subaru typically sticks to its turbos.
