...i can't imagine why not...i don't believe toyota was ever 'holding back' the FSE from lotus; it's just not a suitable layout for transverse mounting...

...in truth, lotus serves as a sort of halo user for the toyota powerplants - you'd be surprised by the number of toyota buyers who get excited over the association...i expect lotus will continue to conservatively evolve its tuning and forced induction modifications, but there's no reason to believe toyota won't supply lotus with the most refined version of whichever engine model remains suitable and available...
