Well, if it needs to be in there, it probably needs to be more like your
original -- this is too vague. I was simply questioning whether it
needs to be there at all. "exactly the same displacement" seems too
strict; perhaps we could just stick with the same number of cylinders.

All fine, but change "twin" to "multiple". I don't know of any now,
but who'd have thought we'd have five valves per cylinder? Someone
could certainly come up with a triple-turbo system from the factory...
