That is exactly what I was trying to get at earlier. I hear a lot of hype about how this car is getting the same motor as the EVO's (meaning 4b11t). But from my research, the only thing I've found to be known for sure is that it'll have a turboed 4b11, but there are different variations of the 4b11. The evo's 4b11 was beefed up to handle the extra power, but nothing I've read had solid evidence showing if this is the beefed up one in the evo's, or if it's a weaker standard 4b11 with a turbo slapped on it.

That's just what my research has shown. If anyone has a link to any evidence that states otherwise, please share!
