Still kind of two different cars. I love my boosted FRS a lot, but honestly, we have been having fun with our Ecoboost. Currently at 420whp 420wtq on a 5858, stock fuel system, stock engine, stock clutch...

If I was going to do this again I'd go Ecoboost. Just being honest.

here we go... but its whatever you think you want. If you want good power now, mustang, if you have to/want to wait for power FR-S. Its whatever car you want. Two different cars your thinking over.

I don't think the mustang is going to give you the thrill in the twisties that the 86 dishes out. And as everyone mentioned they are 2 completely different cars... go drive them both.
