Like I said for me its never about the bottom line power or 0-100 figures.. Strap enough blowers and inject enough No2 you can get a gazzilion hp from a 600cc 3 cyl.
I'm more from the Rolls Royce and Bentley school of thought. Its about how that powered is delivered.
In which case nothing beats V8s and V12s
And as the saying goes 2liter is not an engine size its a coke bottle
