Hands up if you knew the 'FA20' engine code already. Nope? Us neither. It's the code given to the
Subaru BRZ
's 2.0-litre flat four (the Toyota unit is 4U-GSE) and it's the subject of a video from
Cosworth
Subaru and Cosworth of course have previous with the Impreza CS400. This looks to be a more independent project from Cosworth, the Power Packages likely to extend to cars beyond the BRZ introduction. Still, as a beginning to this project it's a particularly exciting start.
The official blurb from Cosworth is as follows: "'For 2014 we are bringing... our Performance Parts range - providing complete performance upgrade kits that have been designed and validated as a system to provide guaranteed levels of power and reliability.First for the Cosworth Power Package treatment? The FA20 engine platform... coming soon."
Cosworth has also released a quick teaser video of the FA20 package, with a pic of a stickered up and bespoilered BRZ. No more details yet though. Consider our interest piqued!
