How does Murrika get so little HP out of such a big engine?
Chebby Corvette 6.2L V8 = 455HP
BMW M3 3.0L l6 = 425HP
I mean, that's almost half the HP per L that BMW makes.
>>16069795
OHV vs DOHC with forced induction
Not to mention understressed motors.
>>16069795
NO DISPLACEMENT FUR REPLACEMENT
>>16069803
>Not to mention understressed motors
yeah, chebby v8s are so under stressed! stop this meme
High-displacement V8s are low-revving by design and (usually) NA, which equals less explosions per second and less powerful explosions. A high-revving turbocharged engine can put out more power at a smaller displacement, but that doesn't make it inherently better or worse it just says you're going for a different goal.
>>16069811
z06 doesn't have sufficient cooling autismo. Has nothing to do with being overstressed. It dissipates too much heat and doesnt have enough cooling
It is still an understressed motor
>>16069822
>It is still an understressed motor
thrn why is the ecu programmed to severely limit power during performance driving to ensure the glass cannon engine makes it through the warranty period? gm themselves have even said this about the lt4
lt1 is no better either desu
>>16069822
Maybe it would be more thermally efficient if it was smaller
>>16069829
>>16069822
>>16069826
ECU limits the motor once it gets hot so it doesn't grenade itself from shitty cooling.
First couple of z06 grenaded themselves because metal was piling up in the oilpan according to Tadge J.
GM said they are fixing the problems of the overheating shit by redesigning the hood and front bumper.
>>16069829
It would be thermally efficient if the highups of GM didn't rush the fucking car out the door to make max profit. Its literally a cooling issue
Count that in HP per $ you son of a bitch. Both cars with prices for their domestic markets.
>>16069840
>>16069844
ACKSHUALLY the supercharger is undersized and acts as a heat pump
not to mention shitty chinese materials used in the engine(pic related) and stupid torque tube design that destorys thrust bearings

>>16069883
That is what I said about the generation of heat and no cooling, and metal in the oil pan.
Never heard about the torque tube issue tho

>>16070956
I think our actual approach should be to coax them into going on to reveal they believe that displacement equates to weight or even overall dimensions of an engine.
Are you forgetting that the BMW has two fucking turbos, you mong
Fucking ricers
>>16072716

How does Germany get so little MPG out of such a small engine?
Chevy Corvette 6.2L V8 = 17/29

How does Germanika end up getting so little displacement and power out of heavy as fuck engines?
Displacement is a meaningless measurement.
Weight, dimensions, powerband/gearing, reliability, efficiency, and emissions are the only things that matter.
Taxing higher displacement more is especially stupid, especially since smaller displacement engines have to wind too high to make power in traffic which greatly increases emissions over running a higher displacement engine at lower rpm.
35k more

Their biggest achievement is lotus with bodykit which couldnt even make 2 top speed pulls while at the same time you have euro godmachines like pic related who cand do top speed all tank long....
>>16078843
>16 cylinders and 4 turbos and it can't even make 1000whp
wew
Meanwhile people are driving around their 3000hp drag cars they built in their garage.
>>16078866
1200 hp all day long, no matter the temperature or humidity. Only limiting factors are tires and tank capacity.
Sure there are people with 2000 hp gtrs and what not, but those cars are made for 5 pulls on drag strip before they need new everything. Bugatti will live longer than top gear tested hilux, mainly because of supreme german engineering combined with owners who will not ask the price when it comes to maintaining it. Like average burger does.
I honestly feel sory for you because i know youll never expirience 150-350 pull on public road.

clap clap any performance V8 crate engine will do that for 1/10 the price. VW cant even get a low output 4banger to last, good luck keeping that nightmare running, hence the 5 figure service bills. Most Veyrons drive on and off a trailer and still need $100k a year in maintenance.

drag race engines barely last the entire event. you act as if they are actually driven on a regular basis... they arent. last time i checked a veyron didnt need a fleet of mechanics and spare parts following them around!

You can easily and reliably daily a 2500hp TT V8. See: NRE, Steve Morris, etc.

My brother has a 335i from like '09 that has already had to have both turbos replaced. Good thing it happened literally a month before the warranty period ran out.
Not to mention it burns tons of oil and has suspension problems
>>16079126
Let me guess... you live in some cuckhole where drag slicks and chutes are illegal?
2500 might be pushing it but you can easily pull off 2k hp with a big block and a couple turbo's.

Probably because the BMW doesn't lock you out of gears to make sure it meets the EPA fuel milage target.
