This looks like a good place to quote a post I made when Subaru started taking pre-orders at the beginning of this month.

He's confident they'll put the turbo in; just doesn't know when Subaru will give the OK.

The reason he called me was to ask what specs I'd want if I were to pre-order (nobody has ordered yet) so I told him WRB Limited 6MT but I wanted to wait for special editions. He proceeded to talk about the turbo. Though it's speculation, it's a detriment to trying to fill his pre-order list. That says something.
