Re:good artical everyone should read.
damn i just downloaded lingenfelter's new video of their supercharged z06 road racin. it spanked all the street cars cept a modded gt2 porsche. that porsche was really really fast.
there were some full race cars that beat it. but the z06 did beat a 600whp 911TT.
lots and lots of cool cars racin, vettes, vipers, lotus, ferrari, fords, nsxs, integras, rx7s, and other race only cars. sweeeet video. its 415megs though... worth the download

well since corvette showcases chevy's best iam sure they would put in the best engine which is not a V6. 405hp stock makes me wanna nut. high HP imports are nice but that will never beat the low thunder of a high output v8 with a good exhaust

http://www.popsci.com/popsci/auto/ar...423014,00.htmlWell, if you wanna get into a pissing contest about displacement you better go look at the GM performance turbo ecotec 4 that puts out over 1000 hp. Guess a four can do what a six can

Re:good artical everyone should read.
My point wasn't the make of the engine, it was the fact that it was four cylinder. And your right, Honda's have been doing it for a while. But as the GM engine proves, it doesn't matter what side of the pond you are from, talented engine builders can squeeze a lot of power from nearly any engine. I'm not trying to turn this into another import vs. domestic thread, hell, I own a crx. I just respect massive hp in it's many forms.
I just fel like getting into a pissing contest this morning.No hard fellings
