Since the official lap record of the WRX STi (last-gen nevertheless) is 8:24, it can be inferred that the 86 can do faster than 8:24, which would make it faster than a lot of cars with much higher horsepower including the 335i (whose record stands at 8:26).

Sounds realistic. Renault have managed to get a FWD hot hatch round in 8.04 (all be it with 265 bhp and sticky tires) The low CoG should help a bit.
