    Italian pasta better in Japan than London? From what I've heard online, Japan bastardises pasta sauces quite a lot at non dedicated places. Not sure about "authentic" places, and no idea what London's like though.

    And they went and turbocharged the 86 ;(. The whole linear throttle response is the charm of the NA. I'd have advocated more for a supercharger. That said, Kanata is running the first gen 86, so I guess you might as well fix the 4K rpm torque dip.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    Well as the 86 is powered by a subaru 2L flat four, it's quite natural it gets a turbo. And all the parts are easily available thanks to,the brz sibling and I bet lots of aftermarket kits. We have to remember the last car we've seen Takumi driving was a subaru STI... I guess it's some kind of string.

    As for the power curve, I'm pretty that for 300hp only it's a very fast spooling small turbo. Probably with an equal length exhaust manifold and twin exhaust turbine. This allows for very fast throttle response and very low lag in the torque/power band. At least it's probably totally unnoticeable compared to using a manual gearbox...
    This kind of setting allows for a very linear power curve with no dips or overboost, at least at a very conservative power figure.

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.
