I have no faith at all that the information in that article is true. There are just as many or more articles/reviews that say a turbo is coming. If anything the idea of a big hp bump on the na engine seems like the least likely thing to happen. Maybe an extra 15-20 hp could be squeezed from this engine, but after that it is going to get expensive quickly. Besides, I still don't see subaru developing 2 seperate high output versions of this engine to put in different cars, both of which are low volume vehicles (wrx & brz). Since the turbo fa20 has already been confirmed I think we know which way this will end up.
