"The non-i8 version of the engine will range from under 100 hp to close to 200 hp depending on the application and number of turbos..."

turbo"S"??? Like a twin-turbo 3cyl engine? Really BMW? I'm just gonna stop reading any articles about the new MINI until there is an official press release with finalized specs. This stuff makes my head hurt and is driving me nuts.
