Being sensible I would be happy with the 2.0L NA for reasonable ecconomy and using as a daily driver.

For a extra extra fun car I would love a 3.6L Flat 6. Well I would rather have a improved one with D4S. Maybe turbo..

Also how about do limited edition one with a flat twin . Commemmorative Version for the Toyota S800

Honestly, if its anything naturally aspirated, im most likely going to mod some sort of forced induction into it.

Turbo is actually doing good in this poll from the last one. I will continue my turbo campaign then. Hachi, let me off the leash so I can continue my "smear campaign", it's working!?!


Though I voted for 2.0T, I'd personally love a destroked EZ30 to 2.5-2.8L.

Yup, we already know what they're putting into it so I figured I'd checkup on our forum's preferences.

Tough choice
100lbs sounds about right for a 6 over a 4.

lol. The turbo loving here just shows how this forum has changed, not how likely Subaru will use a turbo engine .

If that is what you want why did you vote 2.0T?

Edit: Sheesh why does the poll say flat or v? I thought I was careful not to put that into the poll, dagnabbit!

I voted 2.0l Flat4 because I do not know anything about the car yet so it is the most sure bet. I would however love a small 2,7l NA Flat6 that has 300 PS and 300 Nm and yet wieghs as little as the 2.0l NA Flat4.

2.0turbo is doing pretty well considering all the people who've voted for 2.0 NA simply because that's what it's already getting.

No, even this sucker officially came out as 1.6/1.8/2.2/2.5, I would voted 2L... well, maybe I'll think twice bout 2.2L

Subarus 1st generation flat 6 was a 2.7.
Only 150bhp unit. It was pretty much the EA82 1800cc with 2 extra cylinders added.
It was nice and smooth unit.
But I couldnt see Subaru going back to a smaller 6.

I think the EZ30 has the best high-revving NA performance potential.

For two months there was an SVX for sale on Craigslist with cosmetic damage for $800. Almost every day I had to tell myself not to buy it because I don't have the room or know-how to put the EG33 in my Legacy. Sigh...

I still would rather keep the EG33 in the SVX
Lots of good SVXi even mint ones, get the engines flogged out of them for engine transplants . There soon wont be many left.
They are such a nice car if you have a resonable example. Drive great. Nice ride. Sadly they dont have the following since they are a bit werid looking.
I dont mind as much if the motor got flogged if the car had been badly damaged.
I had thought of swapping EG33 into my XT6 tho. Havnt done it so far.
