Mc T?

since the next evolution of engines will be turbocharged...won't they have to change it from MCS (supercharged) to MCT (turbo)?

The "S" doesnt necessarily stand for Supercharged-Ive heard it stands for "sport" as well as "special". Remember, the old Cooper Ss of the 60's werent supercharged.

It will always be the MCS

The S stands for, uh, well, S. This is the wish of the great magnet Jimbo
