I don’t buy it. I’m sure the new FA will be fantastic. It already is pretty good in the wrx
Isn't the FA24DIT already available in the Ascent in a lower state of tune? If there are common problems with it, I would expect people to have already heard about some of them.

I don't have an axe to grind with the old EJ, but a replacement with something a lot more modern is long overdue. Pumping out 276hp in early 2000's is impressive. Pumping out 305hp in 2021 is really kind of meh. (Not to mention how thirsty the engine is.)
