Boost can always be turned up.....

A 3.7 with 330hp is pretty maxed out (similar to the 3.5 with 298hp)

Vote for the turbo 3.5

What a waste of 350hp and a turbo. I would go with the stick!

I'd rather have the V10 that has been confirmed as an option on the hatchback models.

Turbo but with a 6MT.

Look at how much more power they are getting from the 335's with just a tune. Most turbo cars can have another 50+hp for under $1k.

Turbos and automatics go together like peas and carrots. They keep the boost up always where MT will drop boost during shifts, even if for a milli second
