But I also heard BMW is releasing an S58 (performance ver) next year, why not use that? Or maybe that would be for the GRMN version(if that is even happening)?
Given what Toyota did to the Subaru engines in our car, I highly doubt they're just going to drag and drop the B58 and call it good. I'm sure their engineers are working on massaging as much performance out of that platform as reliably possible. We can speculate that it's going to be the B58 based on the rumors but the final HP numbers will probably be higher than a stock version of that engine.
