I don't think that's happening for the US 30d. I'll bet we get the 25d engine at best. Or they just continue with the 20d engine and have the badge be even more grossly out of sync with ROW.

Speaking of ROW, now that the B48 4 cylinder has taken over the 30i badge, it would not be surprising to see a new super-high output 4 cylinder become the new 30d engine soon too. A B47 with the same volumetric efficiency as an N57S should be possible, which would put it at ~250hp. I'll bet this happens by end of decade.
