I just hope Subaru built this motor with the possibility of turbocharging it, even if they don't offer a turbo version. What I'm saying is, my old Impreza's engine couldn't be turbo'd because the motor couldn't handle it. Well, it was possible (a few brave souls tried it), but the psi would have to be so low that the power gains weren't enough to justify the costs. So, if Subaru built this motor without the strength to handle a turbo, I don't see tuners making a whole lot of power out of this thing. It would probably be easier to just do an engine swap.
