V8s are good because they make power. They use big capacity to do so. Turbo 4s are great for the same reason - they make power. They just used forced induction to do so.


How does the cylinder configuration tell you anything about its displacement?

In itself, it doesnt. But for arguments sake, considering he has said his friend has a 5L v8... ;)

Obviously yes there are exceptions, but generally speaking this is how *most* v8s make power.

A 500cc turbo kei car still wont make any sort of impressive power will it? :P But were talking about 2L turbo engines, not .5L ones.

An internally unopened LS1 with better intake, exhaust, LS1 edit and mafless tune can make upwards of 350hp atw, and run a low 12 second quarter. Thats about $4000 - $5000 worth of modification.


An LS1 would need upgraded cams and valve springs to be included in that list on mods to make 350hp @ the wheels.

I have used this set up in a VY SS . It was a good tow car ! It pull my 1200 kilo S15 nicely to the track a couple of times. But it not a performance car.
