Many VW Vanagons have been repowered with Subaru gasser boxers like the WRX.
This would be a nice fuel-efficent screamer. Of course, it is probably
computer controlled but that it pretty neat.

Subject: aerodiesel New Subaru Boxer Diesel Engine
<http://paultan.org/archives/2007/09/17/subaru-turbodiesel-boxer-110kw147hp/>
Subaru's new turbodiesel boxer was displayed at the 2007 Frankfurt
International Motor Show, so let's have a look at some specifications.
The new engine is the world's first horizontally-opposed diesel, or
boxer engine as it's more commonly referred to.
We finally have some stats on the engine although it's still very
vague at the moment. The engine is 2.0 liter in size and puts out 147
horsepower - quoted as 110kW, incidentally the same amount as it's 2.0
liter normally aspirated petrol sibling - and 350Nm of torque. CO2
emissions level is rated at 150g/km.
Subaru's Executive Vice President Mat Nagato says the new turbodiesel
engine will make it's production car debut in the beginning of 2008.
Let's hope more stats on the engine will be revealed at the 2007 Tokyo
Motor Show. We still don't have any idea of how the torque curve of
the engine looks like.
Watch a video of the new turbodiesel boxer engine after the jump.
