![]() "modervador" wrote in message om... "-rick-" wrote in message ... "NOYB" wrote ... How many cars are able to make 225 hp out of a 2.0 liter engine...thus getting 112.5 hp/liter? How many of 'em run their engines at nearly 80-90% of redline continuously for extended periods of time? My commuter car has a 2.0L that makes 227 hp (stock), has AWD, and cost less than $25K new. Granted I don't run at 6000 rpm continuously but the world rally cup guys might. (Subaru WRX) All more impressive because the car is a 4-stroke. I don't think any 4-stroke outboard gets much more than 120 hp from 2 liters. The Yamaha 225hp Four-stroke is a 2.0 L engine...without a supercharger and without a turbocharger. That was the point of my original post. |

The only production model I can think of is the Honda S2000. A normally aspirated 1997 cc making 240hp at 8300 rpm. -rick- |

That works out to 67 hp/liter, about 10% better than the ballpark figure I gave. %mod% |
