I say go with a Viper V10, but that's just me.

Too funny...

For all the man hours, pulled hair and bloody knuckles, just install a super charger if you want more power. The Acura RL V6 is the most powerful Honda engine in a passenger car any, not the NSX engine.

Whereas I'd bet dollars to dog shit that this is (I mean, it's from FraudulentNeon ) that isn't the bit I find the most amusing.

It's this bit:



I'm guessing that considering he can't spell it he also doesn't know what it means. Anaemia is a an iron deficiency (true, it's mostly aluminium) causing an inability to utilise oxygen. The F20C revs to 9000rpm and puts out 240Hp!! It has no problem turning loads of oxygen and fuel into waste products. It is undoubtably one of the most aerobically fit normally aspirated engines every built and has won plenty of awards to that effect.

The VQ35 is a pretty good donk. It has great torque and on this point scores above the F20C. But it doesn't rev. If anything the term 'anaemic' is much more apt towards the VQ35.



LOL, you've gotta be kidding! If there is one thing Honda do very well it's build engines. What's the horsepower per litre ratio of the VQ35?



Just because they use it in many cars doesn't necessarily mean it's a good thing. It means it's a compromise.
You're obviously jealous.

I'm going to win so many car shows.

Also I originally spelled the word anemic correctly.

Fcuking idiot.

Anemic is a variant of the word anaemic.


English language > You.

My bad, I forgot you guys spoke American.

I won't argue with that, but you won't find it spelt that way in an "English" Dictionary.

My personal opinion (If I had the cash) would be to swap in a 3.0L V8 from a company in England that took 2 hayabusa motors and spliced them together by creating a new crank that had balances on it for a V shaped motor as opposed to an inline motor. It makes 220Ftlbs. and 350Hp. it weights 250Lbs and will fit in a 2ft square box. BTW it revs to 12K. This is no joke. They make a RWD, FWD, and AWD trans for it. But it will run you about 10K just for the motor if I remember correctly. They prototyping the 400Hp version right now. I will try and find the name of the company again. You never know I could win the lottery.
