MYT Engine
 
Found this cool new engine this guy made, i guess it only has 15 moving parts, gets 150mpg and has a 40 times power to weight ratio of the normal engines used right now. I don't know how well this would actually work in a car but if this thing actually does what it says it does than this can actually be kind of a cool replacement or the conventional engines used now. Would you guys want something like this in your next car?

Similar in theory to the rotary engine. Good claims, but worthless without an actual working prototype mounted to an real car. Belive it or not, most modern engines are relatively lightweight compared to the amount of power they put out. Its everything else that goes into the car that adds weight. Take a look at the Lotus Elise for example. Same engine as a Corolla, but thats not the reason why its fast.

Elise has an engine out of a Celica GT-S. ;)

The Evora has a Camry V6.

Feels weird as hell saying that to myself...

Very interesting but I do not see it being used in a car any time soon unless they decide to mount one in a car themselves to show that it can really drive a car and produce 850 HP.
