If power were to be around 240-250hp and light weight, i'd make the switch. I would love for it to be a coupe hatch.

Guys.
Have you looked at where the turbo is mounted on the F engines? Unless they develop a whole new turbocharger setup to mount it where it used to be on the EJs or push the engine far back enough to mount it in front, there isn't going to be a turbo in this car, it's way too tall of a setup for the car's design criteria. |

Maybe you could use the fake vents on the sides I guess?

Just leave the damn thing NA and beef up the internals then let the aftermarket/ owner do whatever they please.

Didn’t see this mentioned on this forum? From October photos of a new brz being tested, looks like they are going to use the current platform? good thing they are comparing it with the alpine a110

Most interesting in that is the power of the a110.
