Most of all the reviews I saw about the N.A. FA20 250-300 hp gains came from this 86club site 2 years ago, the material was dated between 2013- 2014 when they but up there postings with graphical data. If you search hard enough you may be able to find them via. Internet but I did a re-check for their graphs about 9 months ago and because the material was dated in 2013/2014 the numbers now appear fuzzy when you zoom in on them..

Well, its year 2020 so it's been 3+ years ago when I saw the material on this 86club site and it was old news then..

Please find these graphs and link them. While you are at it, hold your breath the whole time until you find one

I saw this image floating around, my guess is that it is legit.

^^ Nice. Thanks for posting!

After the launch of the Supra, I am expecting a modest 210 HP N/A FA24 with more torque. Similar to what Honda did with the Si back in 2012 going from K20 ->k24.

I find it amusing how many people think some of us are silly for wanting this car as a lightweight RWD platform to be at +300hp in a factory package. The vast FI aftermarket that probably grew up quicker than the FI aftermarket for any other car in history should be a sign that the demand is there.

I don’t think it’s silly to want. I just don’t see it happening. I idea behind the car is simple, RWD, and affordable. Like the original 86. Plus for Toyota it would be stepping on the Zupra’s toes.

Don't think anybody thinks people are silly for wanting it. They are silly for EXPECTING it. The fact that there is a fairly large aftermarket for upping the power is because Toyota/Subaru shared the plans for the car with the aftermarket suppliers well in advance since they said outright it would never be a high HP car. This whole "needs 300" is just a numbers game anyway. What would be wrong with 220 at the wheels? Wouldn't 240 give an acceleration that will kick most car's ass? Oh no those numbers are not high enough to sit in a parking lot and play bench racer oneupmanship.

Wouldn't matter if it came from the factory with 300HP anyway since there would still be a large market to take it to 400 or 500. Are you going to tell us that there is no aftermarket for the WRX or STi because they come with enough HP from the factory? For the majority of the people buying this car 300HP is just gross overkill. For the minority that want it there are plenty of options out there.

I would guess the larger aftermarket companies already are developing parts for the new model...and already know certain details of the car...
