The new 3.8 comes with direct injection, as it does in the current Genesis Sedan. The new 2.0T isn't the Sonata GDI motor, but just an uprated RS Turbo with better intercooler and I believe larger turbo/boost.

I see, thanks. I'm still waiting for Nissan to convert the Z to direct injection. This seems to be the trend car makers are going, and more importantly it usually comes with a 25-30HP bump.

What is the z currently? No direct injection?

I could see an ultra-efficient + powerful & smaller displacement V6 in the next Z car. . .
