Baba no underestimate that Hyundai theta engine, I am a living witness of the destruction of its I4 2.0T 271hp killing my 3.5L V6 268hp
Chief I DN drive Theta 2 well.
Including the 2016 Hyundai 2.0T with 4exhaust grin. Even the Gdi Optima. They are quick and not bad. But can't be compared to a standard v6.
We they talk of better quick v6 you are mentioning 2gr-fe angry

Bring j32 type-s or j35 or j37 to the table or the Nissan/Infiniti VQ into the equation maybe the 2gr will survive.

2Gr is an old man that can tolerate a little abuse that's why he still stands till 2016 but he is already phased out. That engine for dn collect brother since but Toyota no one upgrade. But thank God 2018 is a good year for them.

Audi's 4.2L V8.
Okay, I may have exaggerated a little grin, but while the Europeans (even some Asians) put out about 75+ hp/litre, Americans are more like 50, though getting better.

You're looking at sheer horsepower. We focus mostly on torque here. We have a national speed limit that was 55mph nationwide before.

What year Audi are you looking at so I can run a comparison. I know the S8 makes over 600 now but is now turbocharged. The audience for german cars and American cars are/were different.

The Audi D2 S8.
If torque is the aim, then I'd rather have diesel or electric. Why waste so much petrol?

What year is the S8? Just give me a model year.

Diesel is not common on non-commercial cars in the US, it's just how it is. It' slowly starting to make headway now but the recent VW dieselgate won't help.

Diesel is dirty, noisy and harder to get mostly.

My clock was cleaned by a Tesla SUV yesterday in my Cooper S. By the time I regained my composure and the turbo lag went away it was too late. Man that thing was fng quick.

2000 Audi S8 = 360 @ 4.2 https://www.edmunds.com/audi/s8/2001/road-test-specs/

2000 Chevrolet Corvette = 345 @ 5.7 https://www.edmunds.com/chevrolet/corvette/2000/features-specs/

2000 Cadillac De Ville = 300 @ 4.6

No biggie of literage for me. The more the liters the more the bang the more the torque.

As "omo alare proper" from Ijebu Ode and from the royal family line, it will be sacrilegious to consume otherwise grin

The epa on the other hand is Chinese. Most likely bought from Nigeria for peanuts, (get it? peanuts - lol) and then they sell it for like $15 per pound angry

Eweso,

Those Ran 1500 are very affordable with the V6. For those who don't know the Pentastar V6 engine works in the 4 cylinder eco mode till when more power is needed then it switches to V6 fully

Awa ri yen wa o.

I've never liked that technology. The difference in sound when it switches modes just throws me off.

I don't like the new fangled stop the engine at the stop light thing either.

Everyone shouting 4cylinder turbos.

But do you even know that does big hp numbers doesn't mean the cars are really fast.
Most turbos kick in at high rpm.
How about torque Turbo lag E.t.c and other factors.

Forced induction (Supercharger or Turbocharger) are better in bigger engines v6 and above.
A 4cylinder turbo will definitely break if pushed very very hard. And most of them won't even achieve 300k miles before you start spending cash to fix them.

I still prefer a 3.5L 300hp v6 than a 2.0T i4 churning 300hp.

Check out the Hyundai Theta 2 engine throwing bighp. How well does it perform in the field.?

I just feel so sorry for benz ditching the 6.2L v8 for a 5.5L turbo cry

Honda has also ditched their 3.5L j35 v6 for a 2.0T .
The j35 v6 will definitely be missed because that engine is a symbol in the Honda Lineup

Mercedes Benz ditched the 6.2L for a 4.0L. Not 5.5L
