Critical parts of the engine must be re-designed for high-rpm bhp applications. The FB20 and FB25 engines wouldn't be able to withstand the high rpm wear. The FB25 would reach 200bhp with minor upgrades like the D-4S injection however it would not rev out like you would expect. I think they are sticking with a 2.0L engine for the launch in all markets so I'm expecting a slightly redesigned naturally aspirated FB based engine for this car.
