God help me I love the Mustang so much but it is still a big hulk of metal with 1960's suspension technology.

It already has a WRX's HP/TQ level.. at least as far as the shifts from redline (around a track) are concerned.
They (your WRX when stock and the BRZ) both put 170hp to the wheels.

Again, all of this is speculative.

So, again, shifting from redline, the BRZ is likely moving at some very decent speed. Don't forget how fast the V6 mustang is.. just because it's fast doesn't mean the BRZ is slow.
