Looking on Subaru's site, it still has the analog speedometer. They could have replaced that with actual coolant and oil temperature gauges and given people something useful, but oh well.

As for the 2.0-liter boxer engine, it now has new valves, camshaft and cylinder heads to go with its new aluminum intake manifold and redesigned exhaust manifold. The result is a slight increase in power to 205 HP and 156 lb-ft (211 Nm) of torque and better acceleration on 6-speed manual transmission models thanks to the new lower final drive ration (from 4.1 to 4.3:1).

Can't wait to see this...

My guess is that the powertrain and exhaust parts will need a revised ECU tune to take full advantage of them. The brakes, shocks, and electronics should bolt-on and be fully functional. The electronic guage cluster, Ichi said, no dice. The headlamps maybe. The tail lights, likely yes. The final drive and body parts are not known. Did I miss anything?

My guess is that based on how fast those pics came down off of Facebook (where they were originally posted) that that is one of at least two unemployed shop workers someplace.

Not to mention that they would probably be more expensive than similar/better aftermarket parts that already exist. If anybody is looking to improve their engine grabbing just the easy to bolt on new parts will not likely be their best option. Buying all the new internals and rebuilding the whole engine to get 5hp would be just plain silly.
