anyway, gotta also understand that the F20C is made to produce horsepower. The FA20 is made to be sporty and livable. Key is where TQ is applied. FA20 scavenges amazing TQ at low revs and peaks again at 6400, while the F20C peaks its TQ at 7500.
If you try to apply the same mods as the F20C, as you would to the FA20, they will respond much differently to them. IMO, the brz/frs will perform much better with more peak hp for acceleration, and sacrifice some of that TQ.

They're typically all strokers, so the displacement is a little moot :p
And yes, I do agree, that the FA20 is rather impressive that it makes 200hp at *just* 7000 RPM.
I'd gladly sacrifice some driveability for more top end hp. AUC for the powerband I use on track is what I care about.
