In my opinion there won't be any BRZ STi with turbo. Again, putting turbo in this car defeats the purpose of lightweight, balanced, rwd sports car that this is. I recommend you just be happy with your current car because it is more than good enough.

I think the latest rumor is that brz will discontinue and Ft-1 will be awesome.

I heard they're changing all bolts to fine pitch thread, because they will have better engagement the whole car will be stiffer, I heard it was a 0.001 g improvement around the skidpad.

Will be a tough choice whether or not to trade in.

If you´re really after a factory Subaru Turbo engine in the BRZ, the only way would be this:

Just FYI the tS does come from STi, as in the product is developed, engineered and sold from STi; therefore, that car is your BRZ STi. Turbo does not equal STi.

Nono it's not at all, cuz STI still have the EJ25

FA20F (DIT)

Japanese output:

Power: 296 hp (221 kW; 300 PS) at 5,600 RPM
Torque: 295 lb·ft (400 N·m; 40.8 kg·m) at 2,000-4,800 RPM

American output:
- Forester XT:

Power: 250 hp (186 kW; 253 PS) at 5,600 RPM
Torque: 258 lb·ft (350 N·m; 36 kg·m) at 2,000-4,800 RPM

- WRX:

Power: 268 hp (200 kW; 272 PS) at 5,600 RPM
Torque: 258 lb·ft (350 N·m; 36 kg·m) at 2,000-5,000 RPM

So, you need to get one out from Japanese Legacy GT DIT or Levorg!

or it doesn't count.

Along with Christian Horner, who will be complaining the whole time that's it's not fair that a Mercedes is faster.
