Thanks everyone, as above, SO MUCH WANT!

Also surprised it took 7 posts before it turned into a FI vs NA thread! Different strokes for different folks, personally I'd prefer to stay NA. I understand I won't make anywhere near as much power, but that's not why I'd be doing it.

Next up: why the next 86 needs a rotary engine.

I can't imagine that based on power alone this would be worth the time and money it would have to take to sort it out properly.
On the other hand, popping the hood to see that incredibly clean engine bay and those throttle bodies has got to be one hell of a "oh, shit, will you look at that" factor.

Down the road, all that extra space might allow for a pair of small, stupid fast spooling turbos.

I was jus jokings guyses, lol. I knew it would disturb FI people haha ..had an SR S13 back in the day. My mildly built NA EG before that, was honestly much more fun (and faster..and less problematic..and more consistent..and simpler...etc, etc, etc). Would rather stay NA.
