Sure you can boost a V8 but there is a point where you are just wasting the power because you CANT put it to the ground. You can get the same HP in a 4 cyl that you can in a V8 or even a V12 and still the point of where you have too much power is the same no matter what your displacement is.


So Displacement is a waste imo..... The VQ37 is a perfect in between and in most cases already destroy V8's in its stock state. The day of American muscle is pretty much out dated. Ill take technology over displacement any day.
Where do you pick up your ignorance from? ANYTHING can hook. It's not up to the engine but rather suspension set up and tires and aerodynamics, etc, etc. How do you think those cars go down the 1/4 mile so quickly? Or how F1 cars are one of the quickest vehicles around tracks? There's tons of ways to get a car planted. Please shut the hell up.

Ever heard of efficiency? Sure you can TRY to make a 900whp 4cyl but you're more unlikely than anything else, able to daily drive the damn thing, and have a good power band. I'll use an example. Pick any and I mean ANY 4 cyl car that can run 8s in the 1/4 with stock internals, AND FULL INTERIOR.
