Yep they bought some tech for one very specific engine. That does not mean all the systems are from Porshe nor that the current system had anything to do with it. I already stated I stood corrected on that one system in that one engine so this ploy is powerless against me. Although I stil have seen no confirmation that they even got that one system for that one engine from Porshe beyond a brief mention in a Wikipedia entry and that Australian magazine article you linked. Neither is exactly a confirmed source but I will accept being corrected based on the fact I can not disprove it. At least until I find the actual Subaru write up that states they developed the new system.
