Yeah that's what I read. Intake/exhaust mods, raising redline to 7500, and messing with the variable valve control system should give it that 50 hp bump.

Wow! I was actually very interested in the STI version until now... Can't imagine how much they're gonna try and mark it up when it debuts.

Here's hoping Toyota picks up the slack.

200 + 50 = 250. who cares.

I don't think Toyota is doing anything similar to the FR-S.

Confirmed: No Scion FR-S Turbo, Subaru BRZ Maybe Eventually

well, it'll be fun to see all the hilarious aftermarket variations on the car.

yup...don't care

Nice looking car, I would only be switching to such a car because I had to scale back and still wanted to be sporty, in no way shape or form would I consider it to be a better car than a Z.

I know a guy in our club who went from a G35 to a Hyundai Veloster...because of how "expensive" the gas was...he should never have set foot into a VQ in the first place.

I also think if Scion pumps out enough, they will be everywhere while I will continue to enjoy the Heritage and rarity of my Z
