Damn. I can see people with AWD tegs & RSX's in a few years. And if people are making 400+ with bone-stock K20's w/boost.... Lets just hope they don't skimp on the driveline, or make it too weird as to not fit in a car.


Maybe even FACTORY AWD/Boosted Acura cars. This really opens up doors...

I believe the article says "rumored" and "prototype" all over it. Along with

Before we share this, we can't emphasize enough that everything you are about to read is based upon a completely unsubstantiated rumor.

It must be true.

Actually, that's what it says about the mid-engine V6 sports cars. Here's what it says about the engine:
"There's been virtually nothing coming our way from official channels, but apparently the owner magazine "Acura Style" has quite a bit of info on the prototype. In their piece, it's reported that the long rumored turbo motor is in fact a reality. There's no mention of the power of this unit, but it's said to displace 2.3L, which confirms another part of the rumor."

So, in truth, it isn't official, but they seem to think it warrants some credibility.
