Details Emerging On Next Boxster Engine with Twin Turbo Overhaul

I am new but didn't see this discussed in the forum. As the details are emerging on the new Boxster we see that it will come with a Twin Turbo Overhaul.

Potential Next Generation Porsche Boxster Setup
As the details begin to emerge on the next line of Porsche Boxster motors, so has the speculation on the setup and power numbers. Currently, there are rumors that three motor layouts will be offered, a 1.6L, 2.0L, and a 2.5L. The 1.6L has been rumored to have been scrapped, as it was originally intended for a potential separate prototype vehicle that never made it beyond the development phase. Knowing this, we will focus on just the 2.0L and the 2.4L for now, until more details emerge. Both motors appear to be getting twin turbos, and direct injection, which will really help make up for the lost displacement of the current flat 6 motors. The 2.0L would produce 286 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque; meanwhile the 2.5L would produce a whopping 360 hp and 347 lb-ft of torque.
