nah the 2.2 and 2.5 dodges are great. i've never blown a headgasket and i ran 350fwhp on a stock block with a super 60 turbo (custom tune by me).
I blew a bunch of turbo's tho haha took them well out of efficient ranges. and i still got 25mpg city
maybe i had a diamond in the rough tho haha

the only thing gm knows how to do is build v8's

Oxide_Zer0yome 06-29-2009 04:53 PM

and economic pieces of crap. only plus for economic performance with gm is suzuki

rExin_you_out 06-29-2009 05:02 PM

shitty v8's. most of those bullshit v8's cant touch any honda for power-per-litre. ---- i had a 84 camaro z28 "HO" with a whoooping 180ish? hp from a 5.0.

even a good gm 5.7 say 350 hp n/a is pritty good, 61.4 hp for every litre

and take the shitiest honda d16 at say 100-110 hp - 68ish hp per litre

h22 sits around 90 hp per liter, b18 is up by 100 hp per litre.

so tell me, if gm v8s cant compete with honda 4 bangers how the ---- do you get off saying there 4 cylinders would hold there own....

And thats not getting into boost where hondas shine, 300 from a 1.6 is not hard, and thats 187.5 hp per litre.

this is real interesting. i had alot of problems with my 2.5 cam seized and always knockeda little..

rExin_you_out 06-29-2009 05:47 PM

the heads on those quad 4's are the most retarded ---- in the world. each cam literaly has its own little head and those 2 heads bolt to the head, that bolts to the block. kiss....Keep It Simple Stupid.

rExin_you_out 06-29-2009 05:51 PM

not to mention the coil pack/wires/valve cover bullshit contraption that gets a hairline crack in its shity plastic and stops the car from running. try to find a quad 4 coil pack in a junk yard. you wont, and its NOT because there are no quad 4's in there, thats for sure.

Iv dismantled many a car at the junkyard in my 3 years and honestly the quad 4 has always stuck out as a peice of ----, right up there with pulling a jaguar v12 cylinder head, which has about 40 million tight fitting studs, not even a forklift and bouncing the car off the ground took that unbolted head off, took atleast 2 hours to slowly shimmy it up perfectly evenly befor it came off. no wonder most jags get 350s.

Hear are a just a few reasons, coil pack as mentioned, stupid ass head design, timing cover has to be completly removed to do realy any motor work and thats a pain in the ass cuz they have more bolts in the timing cover then they do in the inside of the engine =/ and the list can go on.

well you wanna talk about crazy bastard engins has anyone worked on the gm 3.4 dohc? i tore one down and i swore it was an indy car engine it was soooooo over engineered

Oxide_Zer0yome 06-29-2009 05:57 PM

its cuz everyone needs one for there hunk of ----! hahahaha
