I'm not sure either but I'm keeping an eye out for other sources.

I wonder, how much HP and/or torque do(es) the TRD/N1 model in the videos have? Will stock be as zippy?

Actually the sound produced from a boxer engine that you're referring to is caused entirely by the exhaust manifold runner length - NOT by the cylinder configuration. By being unequal, the exhaust pulses come out at uneven intervals, causing a "rumble" instead of a "buzz." The firing order is equal on the crank - 180 degrees.

That specific modified car's exhaust (headers) may have been chosen to cause that rumble to make it distinct, but often equal length headers that create a scavenging effect will make engines breathe better up top.

Expect the stock FR-S/BR-Z to sound pretty similar to any I4-powered vehicle on the road.

It's all about flow. More flow at a given RPM means more torque there.
