I highly doubt little bit that engine. As far as I can see, they have used S38B38 cylinder head witch breaths better, but that 3.8l block is even on stock pretty fragile because the bore is so big. When you overbore it to 95,3mm to get 3,9l engine out of it, wall thickness will go to 3mm witch is so little that it might not last even when non-aspirated. Then push some 1bar overpressure to it and it will definitely break down really soon! I really hope that they know what they have done, but that's not my problem.
