2.2L with 240 I completely agree with. Past that and the money required for parts vs the cost of the vehicle at sale makes it a really tough business decision, one that I don't think would happen.
I definately agree that all of it is possible, just unrealistic for Subaru to release a 2.2 260HP engine (and IMO that's possible as well, 2.0L 240HP has been done, so 2.2L 260HP is definately possible) and all of those other parts at the originally requested price of 30k. That's what this discussion has been about.
edit: was wrong about the 2.4l part not being original to the request. Fixed post.
