Soon to be owner of a 6.0L V8 in a 2005 Pontiac GTO. First car was a 5.0 Foxbody and after 10 years of driving a 2.0L turbo, I really miss the torque.

^ that will be a fun car to drive.....4 seater Corvette!

that's a really cool car.
My buddy bought a G8, and I was shocked as to how fast and fun it is. Makes me want an LS motor in my 67'.
:D

i seriously wonna falcon punch u unless u can prove to me

bitch

Yeah, I'm getting about 15mpg out of my MR2T right now so I figure, I may as well get 400hp out of that 15mpg. Driving styles have changed, when I bought the MR2 10 years ago, I was able to drive it in a more relaxed manner and I could stretch the tank to 550kms before I needed a fill up. Now with everyone tail gating, pedal to the metal, I'd be lucky to get 300kms out of a tank.

Sorry dude, I don't mean to rain on your parade but 305 Z-28's are slow as shit.

What?.. Can you show me what current I4 N/A beats a current N/A V8?

As for V8's I don't think you know what your talking about.. american V8's are great. espeically the classics. Big Block 7L 454 pushing out 490 ft/lbs torque and 409 hp. Also with a quick wiki search there is a 9.4L V8 pushing out 720 hp 685 lb·ft. Show me a non supercar V8 that pushes out that much power without aftermarket upgrades.

still faster than a civic :D

american cars especially cameros back in the 80s 90s are fukin under power for a V8 coming out fresh from factory. my suv would put those car to shame stock vs stock sadly.

I don't think you realize how much engine tech has changed since then..

no shit about technologies, guy getting king shit with his camero if you don't realize that also?

first of all you dumb PoS, its camaro. 2nd your 08' bimmer x5 SUV has shit all on current american muscle. Ironic though because your probably more "king shit" on the road, with your BMW, then camaro owners are.

Uhh, depends on the Civic.

I'm not literally saying 4 cylinder have better performance than a V8, in no way that's true but it's just making my point that American cars in general use bigger engines to make the same amount of power compared to an engine with less cylinders or just generally smaller.

everyone has their own opinion... and with performance and engines aside, American cars straight fuckin ugly

^same amount of power eh?
give an example where a 4 banger makes as much torque as a v8.

He said stock or slightly modded. Slightly modded usualy means intake exhaust and some stickers

I said not specifically "4 bangers"

becuase most 4 cylinders are POS also (depending on the car).



V6 is where it's at.

I'm done /

That's not what I meant. By type I meant MODEL.

A newer SI or SIR will tear his Z28 a new one.

Have a V8 in my Datsun :)

lol look whose mad and as for pos, what about that lancer oz you got in your profile? how would u feel if the op with V8 pulled up to you and laugh in your fukin face kid as he did mention above and enjoy doing so to 4bangers? as for king of the road, i bought that car for my wife to use for daily drive/work/grocery.

That is true

I wouldn't feel anything because I am not intimated by some random guys V8, I appreciate cars and all engines N/A or boosted. Respect the ride even if its a PoS. Get some fuCking English lessons while your at it, FOB bitch.

FYI I dont drive the lancer anymore, I don't care enough to update my profile.


Well for someone who has a supra as their avatar, I sure am amazed that you didn't mention Inline 6 rather then V6, as for 4cyl being PoS, 4G63 is a pretty damned good engine IMO. The lesson here kids, its not always about how much the engine can push out.

I won't argue with you on the V6 comment as I myself drive one. However, saying most 4-cylinder engines are pieces of shit is a bit extreme - our family has a Volkswagen with a 20V 1.8T and I love that little engine. It's got more then enough power for most people, it's pretty good on gas, and it's got ample amounts of torque for booting around town (what it's designed for). To be perfectly frank, our 1.8T hands-down destroys my V6 when it comes to in-town running around. My V6 has no real usable power except for on long back-roads, or the highway (turbo lag until 4200RPM). Again though, my car was built for top end, where the VW is built as an awesome commuter/city car.

Note: Vw is stock, other car not so much lol.

I really dont think people tailgating you could have that much difference you prob just have worn out parts or something.

LS1 here!
