FIAT is doing 240 (and 260lb/ft) w/ 1.7L. Really not that big of deal at all. Rumour has it they limited output at the time due to weaknesses in their DCT.

How about the engine/powertrain in this:

You are questioning the reliability of a 1.6l 240hp motor...i am pointing to a 350hp 2.0l..anyway

Nice motor.

Hood scoop for the 86?

Meh... I'd rather just boost my 2.0L

Making power is easy, any manufacturer can do it. If they don't it's because they choose to pursue some other performance metric.

I was going to bring this engine up as well (The Formula Atlantic).

My S/C MR2 was a 1.6 (4AGZE) and I had a legit 180 wheel HP, So I would guess around 200 at crank...
Why is this relevant?
My S/C MR2 was made in 1988.

With forged internals and an aluminum block, you can do amazing things.
Heck...the S2000 was 2.0 liter with 240 hp...

So yeah, its certainly doable.

Reliability and mass production and cost...

That old adage...

Fast, inexpensive, reliable....Pick two.

There is already a FA20 DIT in production, which makes 300PS (~296hp)

So 240PS from the 1.6L version seems about right.

looks like they addressed the claims of nowhere to put a turbo

The 1.6DIT was released and on display over a year ago, more details to come.
