What does it matter how high you can rev your car if you can only make 150 whp with it?Seems to me that Tufte made about 168 whp and went 13.1 in a certain Integra. So, having the ultimate hp #'s isn't ALWAYS the first and foremost thing needed to go fast.

Yeah, but that car also was 8-900 pounds less than mine. Is it just me or no matter what kind of car you have, you always get haters? I just noticed now more than ever, that no one likes what anyone else does.94NDTA(or sean if I remember right), you seem to be the BIGGEST negetive nancy I have ever seen. Not just my car, cuz I could give 2 shits less what some hick who drives a mullet-mobile thinks about my ride, but everyone's stuff. I don't make fun of the fact that your car gets 8 miles to the gallon. or that you make 50 hp per liter and my car makes over one hundred. I have nothing but respect for anyone in the car scene, until they act like a complete fucktard and make fun of everything they don't like.

Awww....you make me feel like the inside of a warm muffin.
I wasn't trying to rain on your parade, I was just saying I don't understand why how high your car revs really has anything to do with how fast your car goes.
And the whole hp/liter arguement is another one I don't understand.
What I do understand is how fast a car actually goes, which is pretty much the only thing that matters.
If your car is fast, thats awesome, but I don't see how it makes a difference wether your car can rev to 5 grand or to 9 grand. Thats not a negative comment to you, or people with high reving engines, I'm just saying who really cares how big your engine is, or how high you rev, or how many liters you have.
Also, I never made fun of anyone, or disrespected you, I never "hated" on your car, or said I don't like it. YOU were the one who went off the handle on ME.
Chill out.

He has a 1.6L engine his car puts out 185hp, so his car puts out 115.625hp per liter. It's a matter of efficiency.Let's say your car is a 5L and puts out 250hp, so then your car would put out 50hp per liter.
I hope this helps explain his witty come back.

I'm not stupid. I've heard the arguement way too many times.What does it mean? NOTHING.
RC car engine put out 200 hp per liter
Does that mean it has a better engine than his car? Depends on the application I guess, but really, his engine is better, even though it has less hp per liter.
How many hp/liter does a deisel engine in a train have? 10hp? Oh an, that must be one shitty low hp engine!
SO, I come back to what I said before. Does the hp/liter agruement mean that one is built better or worse than the other? no. Does it mean one will be faster than the other? No. Does it have ANY relevence at all? No.
Let me guess, this is when you say "If honda made 5.7L V8 it would have 600 hp and get 40 mpg"

Yep I'm done, this thread is about Joel's new plates.
You have your opinion I have mine.
P.s. Honda is coming out with a 5L V8 VTEC Sports car to replace the Acura NSX, so I guess we will have to pick this up where we left off when the stats for that get released, lol.;)
