According to new reports from Automotive News, Subaru is currently developing a new turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine for the BRZ.
The engine uses a single twin-scroll turbocharger and straight direct-injection developed in-house. This could enable it to produce 280 hp and more than 339 Nm of torque. For comparison, the naturally-aspired 2.0-liter engine develops 200 hp and 205 Nm of torque.
Additional information is limited, but the turbocharged variant of the BRZ is slated to be launched later this year as a 2014 model.
