I'm not an expert on the boxer 4-cyl. engine (or on anything else), but my understanding is that with DI you get carbon build-up and a fuel delivery system running at higher pressures in order to achieve an emissions standard. Okay, fine. On a 2.0 inline-4, Honda was able to use VTEC and port injection to produce an LEV powertrain that made 240 hp. I'll take the inline-4 if anyone is offering it — simpler is better.
NOTE: Not trying to start a fight with anyone. I love the FR-S/BRZ, and I'm here to learn from you guys.

That 240hp 2.0L would fail current era emission standards. Too much nox.
