Why the FA20 Is Legendary

The FA20 is the modern hero of lightweight sports cars. Co-developed by Subaru and Toyota, this 2.0L boxer flat-four keeps your center of gravity ridiculously low, giving the 86 and BRZ their famously crisp handling. Equipped with Toyota's D-4S direct and port injection system, the FA20 engine delivers incredibly responsive power. While some builders look into the FA20 vs FA24 debate, the original FA20 remains the most accessible, highly supported platform out there. Want to learn more?

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the FA20 and FA20DIT?

The standard FA20 is naturally aspirated and utilizes Toyota's D-4S fuel injection, found in the BRZ and FR-S. The FA20DIT is the turbocharged, direct-injection-only version built specifically for the Subaru WRX.

Does this engine fix the torque dip?

This is an OEM replacement engine, so it features the factory power band. To fix the notorious torque dip, you will want to pair this healthy engine with an aftermarket header and a custom ECU tune.

Is it safe to boost a stock FA20?

Yes, but you need to be smart about it. The stock internals can handle a conservative supercharger or turbo setup (around 280-300 wheel horsepower) safely, provided you have a highly reputable tuner setting up the fuel mapping.
