100bhp from a petrol 1.6? get real.
The 100bhp mark in a 1.6 was passed many moons ago,
Lord Hall, waht is the average BHP for 1600s on the market?
No idea, do your own research I can't be arsed. As you drive around in
your glorified washing machine ponder the fact that with forced
induction and toxic jungle juice they were getting around 1500bhp out
of a 1.5 litre back in the 1980's.
Oh sure. Very few prodution cars exceed 100bhp/liter. Certainly not
diesels.
My supercharged V8 4 liter jag dpes not crack 400bhp.
Racing engines can crack it to be sure...and especally 2-strokes.
Current F1 enfgines are cranking out 850bhp on 3.5 liters.
At 18,000 RPM using titanuium conrids and pneumatic valves....and about 3
miles a gallon
and your point being?
