Default 8v or 16v ?

Is it true that impreza sport models come in 2.0 8v or 2.0 16v? someone told me earlier models were 8v however later models are 16v, yet they are all 123bhp? I was pretty convinced they were all 16v...?

I was sure they were all 8v as the turbo's have twin cam. But many on here have said there 16v
