    I say if the people want turbo give it to them but in a certain trim so that those who don't want turbo don't have to buy it.

    if turbo is an option, thats fine. I dont have a problem paying for it. Besides the supra, I've never had a desire to own a toyota, they're boring.

    Now this car on the other hand, as long as it ur available in a turbo trim, I will buy one. That being said, if there's no turbo version, just a 160hp n/a motor, I will not be buying one. I think there are many others who feel the same way.

    If Toyota wants to shake the cobwebs, and get rid of the "boring and bland" type of cars, I'd say a turbo 6spd rwd is the best answer. Price it at $25k and they will sell so much volume it would be ridiculous.

    They will for sure release a turbo version of this car. Weather it is a G's Racing version or just a different trim model remains to be seen. But they will release one.

    nothing much has been confirmed, it's all rumors and speculation at this point.

    if the current Toyota is anything like it's past we can see a FR-S non-turbo (lowest trim) and a FR-S turbo sport model thats similar to the concept (highest trim)

    Unsure of a inbetween model.

    someone brought up a FR-S hybrid in another thread.

    I was checking out a FR-S website earlier today and they mentioned the chances of a Scion releasing a FR-S with turbo won't be happening anytime soon. Maybe this was to cut costs, who knows.

    They already released the specs and statements about this kinda stuff.. Scion turbo version is not happening, it's just a NA 2.0 liter H-4 200hp, 148 lb torque. Only way your gonna see a turboed version is perhaps from Subaru? but who knows they haven't released any information about their version so far

    Not impressed with the FR-S torque. 148 lb torque, thats just as good as a Civic lol , we do need a turbo after all.

    200hp & 148 lb-tq, toyota better keep weight down.

    Any idea if the Japanese version, Toyota FT-86 will come with a turbo?

    Your guess is as good as mine as the Japanese versoin having a turbo but I saw some chatter going around that the Toyota FT-86 version that's coming out in Asia and the other countries getting the Toyota version instead of Scion might have 240 HP?

    lol good news for people in Asia, bad for me!

    Were getting a 200HP engine while they have a 240HP engine and probably with more torque.

    Toyota and Scion knows american's love big power, hence the domestic's coming out these days that are performance focused are pushing 300-500 HP.

    The wait for the release date is killing me and so is the wait for some official information.

    For tuners I dont think it matters as much as how much power the FT-86 comes with. More importantly is how well the engine receives simple modifications. If a simple intake header exhaust will unlock more power and torque then I would be happy. I don't expect the stock FT-86 to be extremely fast. I wouldnt be suprised if the japanese version was 240hp and the american version was 200hp.

    Id take 200hp n/a over 160hp with turbo to get it to 200hp.
