Just because a car has a turbo'd version of an engine with the same displacement doesn't mean it will be quicker. Also, the 2.0T is an inline 4, the FT-86 should be based on Subaru's new boxer engine. The boxer configuration allows for a lower center of gravity and hence better handling and also is distributes the operating forces better.

intake/tune both of them and the genesis will run circles around the FT-86. there's little to no gains to be made an an NA car with a tiny motor.
