Strong Statement? 315 HP Toyota GT 86 TRD To Appear At Goodwood Festival

The GT86 TRD will be joined at Goodwood by a turbocharged and supercharged concept version of Toyota’s new rear-drive coupé.

The GRMN Sports FR Concept is the work of specialist tuner and race team Gazoo Racing, and made a low-key debut at the Nürburgring 24 Hours last month.

The twin-charger system concept boosts power and torque from the GT86’s 2.0-litre engine to 315bhp and 311lb ft.

The price has to stay under $30,000 to match the Genesis Coupe. You go up to 35 the G coupe with a V-6 is more attractive.

How about.... A 315hp Toyota GT 86 to appear at dealerships? I don't know... There's something about a 200hp Sports car that doesn't sound that appealing to me. Maybe if it weighed 1000lbs.

Alot of old (very old) Detroit Diesel 2 strokes diesel engines were supercharged (necessary to run) and also turbo charged. Back in 1997 our 60k loader had a 5.9l V6 diesel making 350hp (which was quite alot for any diesel back then, as the most powerful production pickup diesel was the 7.3l powerstroke at just over 200hp)
