I'd expect with all the effort invested in reducing friction and restrictions, mods like oft would yield more gains?

I doubt it. Imo the only way to improve hp/litre would involve higher rpm.

Wonder if the new engine isn't available with an automatic transmission because they removed the provision for the AT pump? no cam plate = no leak.

i think the new 86 looks good depending what color it's in and from what angle you are looking at it and how much you tilt your head and squint your eyes
