Maybe it'll be a sort of "tuner" interpretation of the four cylinder model?

Yes but Nissan has gone away from forced induction because its not cost effective. Forced induction is the only way that the 4cylinder can better the 75hp advantage that the 6 cylinder has. They cant have the SE less powerfull then the SE-R. Also the 4 cylinder would also end up costing more than the 6 which would be suicide.
