Can I be the first person...

... to predict the number of threads discussing the claim by Jalopnik that the Toyota version has 4 HP more than the Subaru?

My answer: 3. The same number as the number of licks to get to the center of a tootsie pop.

Claimed 4hp? I think I found the part number for the GR 86's air filter.

Toyota needs they are better than Subaru even though Subaru is building the car... (it does look nicer than any Subaru ever will though but I digress)
