I never understand the endless complaints about lack of power this and that. Everything has it's limitations and compromises. I'm speaking from driving V6 Camry, 300 HP Lightly modded Supra Turbo, to a puny 106 HP Yaris the twins is more than sufficient enough for DD just have to know it's powerband strength.

The type of driving I do doesn't need forced induction and power isn't the end all be all. Would 50 more horsepower be nice? Sure! Do I want to void my factory warranty and drop $5k+ for that extra power? Nope. I'd rather buy a gently used Cayman S or Z06.

I'd think Jesus would have at least 1000hp.
Engine of Christ, tuned for you. |

I believe that most people who comment on the perceived 86 power issue are only familiar with high torque cars. These are mostly cars that operate in the low rpm range which make up a majority of passenger cars.
The 86 is a high rpm car. It shines in the upper reaches of the tach where most cars can only wish to approach. Also, people keep forgetting that the 86 is a relatively inexpensive sportscar. You can't have everything.
