This is the engine that should have come in the Subaru BRZ: the FA20. It’s a direct-injection engine using a twin-scroll turbocharger from Honeywell Turbo Technologies. Hey Subaru, if you’re listening, give us a STI BRZ with this engine! |
The turbo sits down and low on the engine. This setup still uses a separate compressor bypass valve, so the tuners can upgrade to their heart’s content with relative ease. |
The cutaway of the turbo shows the divided turbine housing used in twin-scroll setups. Because the turbo is mounted so low, it has this cast oil drain sump similar to what Porsche uses for the 911 Turbo. |
The FA20 still uses TGVs. |
