The FRS/BRZ really benefitted from a great deal of after market support and auto enthusiast jumping on board to accept the car while talking up development. In 2013, it also had a big jump in power/torque b/c it could use E85 and tunes for E85 which shored up the whopping drop in power band. That went away in 2014. It may be the advances will overcome this take back but realistically a fair amount of talent left STX and sold their BRZ's because they did not want to race without the E85 and tune. I bet there will still be some trying to slide through but the smell is pretty obvious.
