Both the {{cvt|88|mm|in|1}} bore and {{cvt|98|mm|in|1}} stroke are larger, and [[Variable Valve Timing]] on the intake and exhaust improve low-end torque. Compression is 10.4:1. Power is 164&ndash;177&nbsp;hp (123&ndash;132&nbsp;kW) and torque is 159&ndash;170&nbsp;lb·ft (215&ndash;230&nbsp;N·m). The engine uses a reinforced "Gen II" block. Connecting rods are GKN-forged; C70 powdered metal was used from July 2007 on.
