No, its an oil-cooled K26-6 like those on the 930. Being oil cooled isnt a big deal, it just means you have to consciously park the car each time by letting it idle down for 30 secs to a minute, depending on how hard you drove it. By intercooling it, and addign an electronic boost controller it could easily see 300HP. Cheers.
