Turbo V6's are clearly better than V8's for track performance. Why would you want extra weight if you're trying to create a lightweight track vehicle?

Someone actually still thinks this is funny and probably giggles to themselves everytime they repost it.


inb4 Gm fangirl, NissanScum actually.

>overstressed piece of shit vs lazily tuned work horse engine
Huur op, fucking nice one

this is true

At least put some effort into it and cycle IPs

>my ferd ecoboost
breaks down
>makes way more horsepower
breaks again from over stressing
>and weighs less than an lt4
stops running from carbon buildup
lt4 with ten grand into it would put the ecoboost to shame. And is way more reliable stock.

>work horse engine

>more reliable stock

lol delusional

lol @ butthurt gm fangirls avoiding this thread

700hp out of a Ecoboost V6 is really good, no? How did they do it?

.

It's a 3.5 v6 with twin turbo, it should be making upwards of 600, this tune it for performance and made 650, (not 700).

With modern technology any 3.5 twin turbo v6 can make over 1000hp reliably. There is almost no reason for any other engine.

Still shit, too heavy, and not in production.

>twin turbo V6
guaranteed to sound like ass compared to a supercharged V8

Yeah but you can always throw a turbo on a V8 and blow a factory EPA-cucked turbo v6 out of the water

people still think pushrod v8's sound good. Sound is subjective.

Why would valvetrain affect how an engine sounds?

okok mr subjective, its well known turbos kill exhaust sound whereas superchargers make them louder... cant argue with that.
also see: cam lope

It affects how the engine breathes.

yeah which makes it sound lopey due to the amount of int/exhaust overlap needed to "breathe" at high rpm
which i think sounds good

How much psi boost does the ecoturd need to make that 650hp?

26 psi

>herp derp ecoboost

It's boring. Boring sound, boring displacement, boring amount of cylinders.

...

The Ecoboost is the best and final evolution of ICE. Not even HCCI will save ICE now. Soon we will all be electricucks.
