I like the dual exhaust, but apparently the new evo will have the turbo mounted on the back of the block, a'la 1.8t. Anyone care to toss in how that will affect those quick gt35r swaps we are all so keen on doing? :)

Sounds like Intake Manifold sales will be up! ;)
When I first saw that pic in my SCC mag, I didn't like it at all. Looks too much like an RX-8 from the back, and SRT-4 from the front. It's almost like they tried a little too hard for a new, aggressive look. Maybe it'll grow on me...

I don't understand why they would go away from such a sucessful design in the turbo in front, intake in rear engine style.

It never really made sense to me, especially with a turbo, and even moreso when it is going to be an advancement of an already existing turbo platform.

I like it. I just do not like four doors.

Looks like the new acura TL's, it sure doesnt look like an EVO should look...

ahh, i love it. super aggressive looking. and dual exhaust just like the rx-8 and Srt-4.

[Shotgun!]

I'm sure the production version will be a bit less "agressive"

[Super Bleeder!!]

i hope this new "world engine" kicks some ecotec butt

Ah, my fuckin eyeballs.
You know if they mounted that motor the right direction they could put the turbo anywhere they wanted.

I think it looks awesome! But ya that rear mounted turbo is going to suck balls!
