You know how the US Patent Office doesn't allow people to file perpetual-energy machines? FT86Club should create a "no threads about OEM turbo rumors" rule.

-This same rumor comes up every year and not a single one has ever been correct. Back in 2013, people said "there will definitely be a turbo version in 2014!" and there never was.
-Toyota and Subaru have both come out and officially said they would not add FI to this car.
-A turbo would increase the price to be higher than what their target audience is willing to pay.
-More horsepower and higher cost would make this a direct competitor to many much nicer cars, like the STI and 370z.

Posting a thread like this should be an automatic IP ban.
