Man, you guys crack me up. "It wasn't meant to be fast in a straight line". It's not fast PERIOD. In a straight line, around bends, or in the drive-thru. It's just not fast at all.
Just because it may make screeching sounds when you push the Prius tires to the limit, does not make it fast.
I can't tell if it's that they are really this dense or that they simply lack the proper reading comprehension skills to follow the arguments being made.
The whole thing is here:

69 mph in the slalom (on those Prius tires) is nothing to sneeze at.
It may not be fast, but it's light, and it's much easier to add power than to strip weight.

Go hang out at TTAC for a few hours reading their comments.
Come back and let us know how many brain cells you have left..

Just a little more torque is all it really needs. I'd like to see Subaru develop a 2.5L DI engine, use it in the BRZ as a na, and throw a twin scroll turbo on it for the STi (200/200 for the brz and 350/325 for the STi).
Do it Subaru, do it now!

That may be, but which would you choose? lol

Yeah, my plans for power enhancement are pretty much just a header back exhaust with a tune. Which will eliminate the low end torque dip, should be just right. :D

That's what most people do, and that seems to be sufficient (some owners opt to tune and run E85, but personally I'd avoid it).

Yeah, going to E85 is just messing with the stock system too much for me.

I think it's pretty clear which I would chose

Arguing with them won't make them any less stupid.
I'll take FUN over fast any day. Cars like the Toyobaru are not necessarily fast, but they sure are fun. Fast is not always fun.
