So most of us know that Lexus, just came out with an NX. And It has a TURBO!! Well anyway, has anyone thought of putting it in our SLOW is250? I heard it was lighting than out 2.5 v6 and you could always upgrade the turbo right? Does anyone know anything about this new motor?

They are coming out with a RWD application of the engine to be used in the IS, GS, and RC.

Bye bye low end torque. I wouldn't trade my 350 v6 for 2 liter turbo.

The AR is already used in some RWD applications (the 2AR in the IS300h for example), so I would expect mounting the 8AR-FTS in a RWD application wouldn't be too hard for Lexus.
