I track my 986 Boxster S, so it's already 100x worse than any Subaru engine haha
I can't imagine running it 17 times a year for track duty however.

Assuming I land one a cheap FRS (wishful thinking) I'd be ok with a 2013 and be perfectly okay if the engine exploded; it's already cheaper than a $10K+ rebuild on a Porsche motor. Do you have a link to the coilovers you are using?

For what its worth, I had a set of Ohlins suspension on my motorcycle and it was a night and day difference in handling quality. I've been in a few ride-alongs with guys from the PCA club running Ohlins R&T coilvovers and they are pretty sweet but they are in no way cheap but you get what you pay for I suppose. Neat FRS and build you have; colour me green in envy.
