But given the wonderfully designed Toyota engines in their recent sport attempts with the LFA and the ISF, RCF, and GSF just disappointing to hear they'll potentially tarnish the Supra legacy by outsourcing the engine. The BMW turbo 6s respond great to tunes, but damn don't call it a supra.

I dunno. I gotta wait and see. The real magic to 90's Toyota's wasn't just the JZ series engines it was the tuning. So maybe, Toyota will produce a proprietary intake manifold/plenum, turbos and other bits along with special tuning. It just depends how they go about it?
