Yeah I'm not sure when it's coming out... I know AEM is working on a new generation system. One of the things that will be tricky is tuning the injection timing. That's not something that can be easily worked out with just a chassis dyno and a wideband.

I am confident that somebody will figure something out for engine management provided that there is enough demand. I'm sure 25-30 years ago there was a similar situation as multipoint injection became common and most performance guys only knew how to mess with carbs. There are going to be a lot of issue to work through though.

But like Neutral_Eyes said, the width of the engine itself is very problematic, you wont see many cars that will accept a boxer engine between the frame rails. Especially in cars like the silvia and rx7. So the FA20 might not be as popular as the 4AGE among the spread of tuner communities.

You just reminded me of something.. Theres a RX7 race car with a wrx engine... I think its at a guys place who collects old Mazdas.

Its a car here in NZ. It was talked about when I was looking at a thread on guys that collected massive lots of Old School Cars.
I personally havnt seen it. I Have been to the place once before to look at a 1600 Subaru wagon for parts.
Place was full of 808 Mazdas? Looks like the RX3 but has the inline motor, 323s, RX2 shaped Mazdas and a few RX7s, B1600 utes? Not sure if the guy had it there when I went there.
I didnt even know about it other wise I would have had a looky at it.
Think the guy was a owner of a wreckers so he got the stuff he wanted at his house.
