I was just going to mention how that regardless of their new found horsepower, they were still about 80-100lbs ft shy on torque in comparison to the 4.6L. Not gonna start sweating bullets yet. 
Toyota Camry's gunna start givin us a run for our money?

Didn't that Caroll Shelby character have some sort of clever saying about torque and HP?Gearbanger 101 said:I was just going to mention how that regardless of their new found horsepower, they were still about 80-100lbs ft shy on torque in comparison to the 4.6L.

Probably, but who listens to 80-year-old+ men, wearing black cowboy hats that build funny little sports cars anyway?4u2nv said:Didn't that Caroll Shelby character have some sort of clever saying about torque and HP?

at least short buses have tinted windows.........
and back to the camry thing, i've been thinking that about alot of cars coming out lately. ALOT of vehicles are hitting that 300hp mark, or right around there. so it seems these days to have above average power you need a 360-400 at least. i bet cobra owners are loving it. 390 doesnt go out of style to quick
i always still get scared when a hemi 300C or like pulls up next to me. granted those are 5.7L but still, in a sedan.

HP numbers really are on the way up. How about that new Dodge Caliber SRT-4. 300HP from a 4cyl. I still wouldn't drive one. Style does count for SOMETHING.

How stylish is it going to be when a kid hugging Elmo in the back seat of that Caliber waves his binky at you while your speed shifting your ass off just to keep up....

don't forget to mention that's a turbo 4cyl. the number of cylinders don't matter as much as the airflow thru them.
