When will people realize displacement is king?

We love things that go BWAAAAAA stututututu, right marty?

you dont care what it sounds like while trying to keep it straight.

whats the point of DOHC when you makes less power than an LS3 engine that weighs less and is smaller?

You were saying?

>muh revs!

Inferior at that. Objectively.

see

>gm fangirls literally ignoring the gt's existence
kek, btfo by a V6

Turbos are only made because emissions are getting harder. There's nothing objectively better about turbo lag, inferior power band, worse efficiency (irl applications)

>TQ

this will never not trigger me. Read a physics textbook you fucking ignoramuses.

Turbos equal setting faster laps, not that GM would know anything about that.

The c7 smokes cars 2-3x its price. Quit meming pal.

It doesn't beat the GT, dumbass.

>comparing racecars to production cars

Are you retarded? The Ford GT is a production car.

If you can buy a Z06, and you can afford a GT but Ford refuses to sell it to you - is the Ford really a faster car for you?

Limited production only. They'll be building just 500 or something like that.

It's not out yet you fukin mong and if you're talking about the old gen, the c7 still smokes it.

Yes? It's still faster. All I'm seeing from you is damage control.
>excuses
Apparently pushrods are only better when it's convenient for you. Keep crying, cuck.

>the c7 beats the ford gt
no

weights over 120lbs more than a LS3.
larger

>$400,000
What the fuck is ford thinking.

i'm willing to bet the turbo S will still rape it for 200K

Ford just follows trends.
Besides the ST family, nothing has been innovative or new. The gt350 may be an exception but until the new gen zl1 or z28 comes out, I'm not convinced

>intentionally ignoring the 2017 GT
Okay, I can move goalposts too.

>still slower than a bac mono

No, no it won't. A Turbo S is a gran tourer. It's slower around every track compared to a GTR or Corvette. Fuck off, shitposter.

Displacement isn't always king though, especially in racing series. All this shows is that the Modular design sucks, and that the LS is pretty good for building on a budget.

Apples to oranges. Twinturbo V8 second gen GT's made more HP than this insulting V6.

Not him, but a DOHC V6 + turbo's + intercoolers is significantly bigger, and exponentially more of a packaging problem, than a pushrod OHV V8.

>Lag
Can be minimised nowadays. With quick-shifting automatic transmissions, twinscroll and variable geometry turbo's, and creative ECU mapping, turbo lag is extremely small nowadays.
>Inferior power band
As long ad it's wide enough to still be in the powerband after a shift, that's fine.
>Worde IRL efficiency
True.

However, turbo's simply make power. By allowing for extra compression, they remove many of the limitations of the ICE.

that's a sick go-kart bro.

Learn to read. And yeah a million dollar porch is also faster than all these!!! Whoa!!!
Comparing the gt350 dyno to the old z28, the z28 had 100+ more hp in all ranges besides the very top. T b h it depends on your taste if you like power down low or into the very top

>"Apples to oranges. Twinturbo V8 second gen GT's made more HP than this insulting V6."

>made more horsepower
Yet they're still slower around a track than the new one. Fuck you and your "horsepower", ford chose track performance over muh straight line speed.

>"Not him, but a DOHC V6 + turbo's + intercoolers is significantly bigger, and exponentially more of a packaging problem, than a pushrod OHV V8"

WOW! A NATURALLY ASPIRATED ENGINE IS LIGHTER THAN A TURBO ENGINE?!!!! SHOCKING!!!

>excuses

>damage control
kek, pushrod cucks are mad now

Ford still loses to Porsche.
>HURR DAMAGE CONTROL
Fucking autists.

Okay? A million dollar Porsche is faster than a Ford. Atleast I can sleep at night knowing that Ford still beat GM.

Ford had an LMP1 car? Was it invisible?

Assmad ford gets cucked by Porsche

I wasn't talking about the chassis though, just the engine. Of courde the newer GT is faster with it's significant lightening, and DCT gearbox. Go ahead and slap a twinturbo Modular into the newest GT - it'll be a lot faster. The V6 engine itself is inferior.

>pig dies head on in crash.jpg

>A million dollar Porsche faster than a million dollar Ford
Ftfy

>excuses
that go-Kart isn't a real car.
pick another car 2 bench raCE.

No, I just admitted porsche was faster.

porsche>ford>gm
No, it wouldn't be faster because it wouldn't fit. The engine bay is incredibly small. No current Ford V8 would fit.
Ford doesn't make million dollar vehicles.
>assmad

Well, that's chassis optimisation for you. Now let's put a built twinturbo aluminium Windsor in there.

Ford does build million dollar cars. Thode GT3 cars are expensive as fuck.

>aluminum windsor
What part of it wouldn't fit don't you get? The car was literally built around the engine. Ford chose to make the car light instead of a dyno queen.
>ford does build million dollar cars
>implying non production cars are relevant

Porsche is king, stop cucking for ford dude. Alpha Porsche>Boomer Ford

Atleast they're still better than GM. That's all that matters.

A pushrod OHV V8 engine is approximately the same size of a DOHC V6. Turbos and intercoolers can be similarly sized for similar HP goals.
Everyone builds around a specific engine. Doesn't mean it'll be impossible to swap.

Porsche's LMP beat a GT3 Ford. Both of those cars are million dollar cars. That's what's relevant.

Doesn't matter, Porsche is literally #1. Why are you so mad, can't handle your German overlords? It's hard for you to admit it. Sounds like cucklogic to me

>Lowering your goals this much

>Austrian overlords
Ftfy

>naturally aspirated
Ford is actually trying to be faster. This is why you aren't in charge of Ford's performance divison.
I'm agreeing with you retard. Porsche just won lemans. I'm just saying Ford still remains better than GM.
assmad gm fangirl spotted

I never implied swapping the turbo V6 for an n/a V8. I implied swapping the DOHC turbo V6 for a turbo pushrod OHV V8 - hence saying that the turbos can be similarly sized.

So? Add more weight for no reason? K.

>I'm just saying Ford still remains better than GM.
So you're saying Ford is just a hair better than one of the worst companies in the entire automotive business? Way to lower your goals.

>"just a hair better"

What the fuck has this got to do with Peugeot?

>corvette literally disqualified

>Implying an DOHC V6 weighs more than one of the smallest, lightest pushrod V8's ever designed
>Implying Fords Ecoboost V6 isn't heavier than an aluminium Windsor
Even in iron block form, Windsors are almost as light as alumonium LS engines. Last time a Windsor was used in a supercar, it made 750hp with less then half a bar of boost. You try that in an Ecoboost V6.

(Also, that car was only 50lbs heavier than the newest GT, despite not having the might of a billion dollar corporation behind it)

>Implying an DOHC V6 weighs more than one of the smallest, lightest pushrod V8's ever designed

Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying.

>"(Also, that car was only 50lbs heavier than the newest GT, despite not having the might of a billion dollar corporation behind it)"

[citation needed]

My bad, typo, should've been 80lbs
>Ford GT: 2890lbs
horsepowerkings.com/sources-2017-ford-gt-will-weigh-around-2900-lbs-could-cost-around-400000/

Although some sources cite a 2750lbs weight for the twinturbo, but it seems like they're confusing the TT with the regular S7. Still, mighty impressive considering the disparity in engineering budget.

>rumored to be 2890 lbs

Well, I'm not even going to bother reading the rest of your post. Into the trash it goes.

I'm joining the Saab master race tomorrow lads. Like pic related but sadly not the XWD because they're rare as fuck here. Get in there quick and pick up a bit of Swedish history before it becomes the Islamic Republic of Sweden. The keys are a plastic cube that slots into the center console. There's a 'NIGHTMODE' button on the dash that turns of all the interior and dash lights except for the speedo and turbo needles. This is a car with character, a car with personality. This the dawn of a new age. By this time tomorrow I will be a Saab-boy, assuming my rightful place in the pantheon of patrician Saab drivers like Jerry Seinfeld, Action Bronson, and my high school English Literature teacher. Goodbye, shit former life, I'm a Saab-boy now and I'm never looking back.

>chevy ls fans

When did Saab start offering "night mode"?

turbo fanboi here, turbos are a very good bandaid for displacement not a replacement.

The characteristics of turbos vs more displacement makes them particularly suited to certain circumstances - which in those specific circumstances can make turbos superior to more displacement.

They still aren't a replacement.

>inferior power band

Weird then that almost every halo car from almost every manufacturer that has one is turbocharged. Chevrolet being a conspicuous outlier.

There is a very good reason for that.
Modern day turbocharged engines have heavily programmed timing and A/F ratios to allow for relatively stable power delivery. In essence, they're designed (particularly on higher end models) to deliver a relatively stable torque curve.

Cars like the M5/M6 have engines designed to increase their timing and change A/F mixtures depending on conditions to deliver the same power the entire time. This ultimately means that the engine was strangled and peak power wasn't attained.

As an aside, it also suffered a huge amount of recall issues. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW_N63#S63

You look at old turbocharged cars and see how laggy they were, that's because they were not programmed to run for least loss, they were going for maximum power.
Ultimately the turbocharger is a third-party supplier of air, and unless you're storing that before demand or limiting the amount of output, that's always going to be less responsive.

It'd be like me trying to deliver my dick to your mother via DHL.
By the time it arrived, she would've already found another thing to ride.

This was meant for you.

>pushrods

lol sorry gramps, get with the times.

We're not talking about old cars, except GM who is so resistant to change that they'd rather kill people and go bankrupt than make good cars.

Also, while response is important time to torque with modern turbocharged engines is entirely within reason and the torque curve is similar or superior to n/a.

...

>weighs 2200lbs less
>1 second faster

Okay, v6 has a turbo. Now slap a turbo on the v8 and tell me who wins.

Let me explain turbos and throttle response in laymen terms.

A cable throttle is like having sex. It just works, it's instant.
Fly-by wire throttle is like skype sex with toys, it kinda works and the ending is the same, there's just some dicking around.

Duel-scroll ceramic turbos are snapchatting videos of you jacking it, sure it's happening, but it's not really what and when you want it.

Small>Large twin-turbo setups are like fucking a fleshlight whilst watching POV porn. It does work, but its just not quite right.

A single turbo is like sending a picture of your dick in the mail and getting one sent back. It takes for fucking ever and you've probably changed your mind in the meantime.

Quad-turbos are for people that inject silicone into their dicks and are proud when they are told they aren't legally aloud to participate in sexual activity.

Superchargers are like fucking hookers, it gets the job done, but you've wasted a lot of resources and you're going to make a terrible racket doing it.

Theoretically the best engine is an electric motor. But, since they suck, the next best bet is a NA motor with electric assistance.

Like a LaFerrari...or an old Panoz...or the 2014 WEC winning car; the Toyota TSO40.

Now that, that is like having 6 10/10's worshipping your dick in a 4 hour non-stop fuckfest with a full heavy-metal orchestra scoring the entire event.

Pic related is the equivalent of a 65 year old man attempting to get an erection by getting someone to deliver a letter describing abacus games via a fleet of Miatas.

The new GT is a meme car. The prospective owners have to fucking meme it on social media or they're not allowed to buy one LMAO

FORD HAS MUCH CONFIDENCE IN THEIR MACHINE IF THEY'RE FORCING PEOPLE TO SHILL IT AS A REQUISITE OF PURCHASE

>one second faster on a short track

That's an eternity, brosephina.

assmad gm fangirl spotted
a V6, a V8 it can't put its power down on small tracks

Not exactly like they are forcing you to buy one. If you're only making 250 and selling all of them, and it's your Halo car, seems like a pretty cool and modern marketing ploy.

Almost like a mobile billboard, but far more eye catching.

THEY'RE MAKING MORE THAN 250!!! STOP FUCKING SAYING THEY'RE MAKING ONLY 250!!

Now start putting some real HP on that LS3 and see how it will hold up compared to the coyote lmao.

But if you want to own one they are forcing you to do their dirty work.

So they spend less, reducing overheads of per-unit costs on marketing yet charge $400k anyway.

>he thinks he can actually perceive the difference between a cable throttle and DBW taking input from the throttle pot, calculating exactly how much torque the driver wants, consulting the tables in the ROM and making the valves, injectors, and throttle plate do exactly what the driver wants thousands of times per second.

I stopped reading here because you
1) have no idea what your talking about a because your metaphors are shit
2) would rather have less torque over less of the powerband as long as you can tell yourself you can feel the difference.
3) there's literally nothing wrong with electric motors which is something you'd know if you knew anything. EVs are handicapped by battery capacity and battery discharge rates - not the motors.

Except you're dead wrong, single turbos can work just fine, the Td04 on a stock subaru starts making boost at 2500rpm and is at full boost by 3000rpm.

As long as the amount of exhaust you make is enough for the turbo spooling issues are non existent.

Sure. The wiki states that the engines were unreliable. But cant deny it was a 1.5 turbocharged doing some of the highest power an F1 car made. 1100 hp, or 1400 if its the 2.0 variant.
