Yeah i think that new GM engine gets about 15-20 mpg. Thats damn good for a v12. The trick is what GM calls displacement on demand. This engine has the ability to run on 6 cylinders perfectly balanced. Hey Crackhead what about the Caddy CTSv? That thing has 400 hp.

you dont hear about V-tec four bangers pushin 17,000hp like big block v-8's! im talkin mopar engines boy. top fuel drag cars are estimated to put out up to 17grand. the sti may get u to 0-60 in 4.8 seconds. but in a little over 3 seconds, you'll be doin 0-300+! so what would you rather have? variable valve timing? or 17,000hp?

why dont you go and turn to espn or speed sometime..those top fuel nitro burning cars are nuts. i live next to raceway park, and i havent missed a grand national even since i moved here. im in the pits constantly talkin to the pro's. 5 clutches, usually 14-17k hp, and have to rebuild the engine after each run. its true. how they do it? beats the hell outta me. they still wont explain that part.

if i had my choice it would be a group B rally car.... you know, the ones that got banned from the world rally championships,

truly insane four wheelers, and the most technnologicaly advanced cars ever created,

600hp 2 liter engines, 0-60 under 3 seconds

Its actally more like 4-7,000 hp. They run on nitro-methane, many many times more flammable than even race gas. Dangerous stuff [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
