Toyota 86 obtains Ferrari engine transplant

by SpeedLux

When Toyota and Subaru gathered to develop their 86 and BRZ coupes, they weren’t believing about big power. Rather, the 200-horsepower coupe they developed was focused more on its balance and its light weight– aspects designed to stimulate sports cars of yore.

That’s not precisely what drifting professional Ryan Tuerck wanted for this two-door. It’s unclear if this one started life as a Scion FR-S or a Subaru BRZ. In any case, it will undergo a huge power upgrade.

As the video reveals, a Ferrari V-8 is being inserted into the coupe, in an effort to integrate the finest of Japan and Italy.

That V-8, in its stock kind, is ranked at as much as 597 hp in Ferrari’s newest 458 Speciale. That’s a substantial boost over the 200 pony stock motor.

That might sound like sacrilege, however Tuerck understands what he’s doing when it concerns these 2 doors.
