Would love it if they designed a small twin turbo kit for our cars. I wouldn't trade mine in, and would still just FI my car myself, but the aftermarket for our cars would explode even more than it already has.

If they released a larger displacement engine... I'd probably do a trade-in. I'd hate to spend money on mods (like FI) on a weaker platform/starting point.

If they decided to implement hybrid technology, I wouldn't trade my car in, but would be very interested in seeing how that technology would impact the Electric Supercharger(s) being designed, or some sort of Electric Turbocharger design.
