Kinda like how all the Toyota fanboi's for this car bitch about the Subaru flat 4 despite the fact that it's been a long time since Toyota had a good I4.
I'm perfectly happy with this engine if it can do shit like this.

It can if you pour the money and engineering into it that that one has had.

Reduced compression ratio and they managed to get power up to 232 horses at the crank, I wonder if they did any work on the valvetrain/heads, seems like that's where big gains can be had if someone can invest the money. Maybe this is the first step to getting an FA20 to F20C territory...



In the meantime for us cheap bastards header and tune gets you 66% of the way there.

But does it have a LSD and supercharger? Bet you it isn't the stock header either.

Doesn't matter if it's not in the brochure.

Take it easy. Just do not forget to invoice Toyota for your labor. Hope they mail you at least $.10 check.

They couldn't pay me enough to deal with this sort of total incomprehension of simple facts and zero grasp of reality.

Nope. It is probably the education system that groomed you to the elite mind you are today.

I will now sit back and wait for the next highly functioning, intellectual thread you will in no doubt create.

Well I'll be damned, I was wrong, no mention of LSD in my little brochure from the dealership in 2012, you were right @accel

Oh well, glad I did more research than a single 8.5x11 sheet of paper before buying my car, I've been able to enjoy it for 4.5 years now, factory Torsen differential included free of charge.

It's too bad Toyota didn't have enough faith in the platform to release their convertible version, or bring the "shooting brake" concept to at least a limited release.
