Still has the biggest 4 banger in a car.

Not that it pertains to any specific car I can think of but power per displacement is a stupid superlative in anything but a racecar. Power/weight, power/mpg, power/cost, and even torque/displacement all make sense but why does is matter how much power you can make per liter? Its not even a measure of how well

The blitzen-benz had a 20 something liter 4 cylinder engine

Nice. Leavenworth is a neat town and the mountains are great out there.

Not sure. Is there such a thing in the Snohimish-Machias area?

Only your mother's

Gigantic Tesla coil in the infield with faraday cage/catch fences.

Sense you do not make

I agree to a point but you're forgetting that the turbo is going to be less "efficient" for the amount of air moved and there will be added flow losses that make the pressure higher. So really 12 psi of boost is a theoretical number. You might need more like 15 pounds to make the same kind of torque. I'm sure the

Yes, yes I do.

Lol then you're a massive fanboy. They both have their places.

The ecobost is a badass and its built for that. It also has a small turbo that spools quickly and then gets in the way. Its not the 2jz which is what this whole conversation is about.

That's not a very good comparison. The 2 liter is making a little over half as much torque and it takes a little longer to get there. Its also on a dyno pull so its had some time for the turbo to spool up. Not too shabby for a car but that would be bad in a truck.

It gets points for that.

First 35 seconds were great. They could have stopped at the point where he said "no its very real, this is what luxury looks like". Morpheus does not sing.

I'm sure he wasn't but you can't say literally everything without being sarcastic if its only true half the time.

They make ok torque. They're still only 3 liters so unless you turn the boost way up a V8 is going to make more. I'm just going to outright disagree that you can make low end torque that is even comparable to even a 5 liter v8. The turbo is going to have a threshold RPM.

He said literally...

Too big for the displacement.

Its not good in a lot of things though. I'm just saying he's wrong is all. I'm not trying to make a big deal out of it.
