Anything is possible with enough money. Such an engine would not be cheap to engineer, test, and certify. As I said earlier, it does not fit with what we know about the development of this product.

A70TTR also told us that Tada-san did say the starting price for the Supra would be around $55k. In my opinion, that much for a 4 cylinder Toyota would make it DOA. Of course not, I still believe the base model will be the B58 and the higher tier 'GRMN' will be a either a higher tuned B58 or even some kind of hybrid.
Just playing playing devil's advocate for a moment, but with the 86 it did not just result in a straight up Subaru drivetrain.
