No. The days of Honda making high revving, high horsepower, and naturally aspirated engines are long over. Turbos are here to stay. I believe the motor well be a 2.0 liter.
Nice... I was doing a search online for specs for the motor and didn't see much...
Hope it's as good, if not better, than the Mitsubishi 4G63 2.0L little engine that could (in terms of plug and play tunable and how beefy the internals are so you can turn up the boost with bolt-ons. Ran mid 12s on my swapped 6-bolt 4G63 stock bottom-end and 2nd generation pistons, bolt-ons, big 16G turbo @24 psi and very minimal tuning in my TSI AWD back in the day.
Traction might be a nightmare if it's just FWD. I had an Eclipse GS-T and had a 20G turbo on it and I was spinning tires like crazy in 2nd gear, even on a roll in 2nd gear and going WOT it would break open the tires. Got tired of dealing with it and got the AWD.
