the 4's may be able to put out power that approaches the 8's but where is their powerband, almost twice the rpm of the 8's.

also HP is meaningless: torque you feel, hp you talk

who gives a flying f u ck where the power is in the rpm if it goes 8's

hp is NOT meaningless.

down low torque is overrated amongst you domestic folks.

Holding torque across the powerband is where its at. as the revs climb if you can hold the torque , the more hp you make(which is important), the faster you go PERIOD. no ifs and or buts.

f1 cars spin to the moon making lots of power out small motors.(hold the torque)
nascar spin those dumbestic v8's to 8500-9000 rpm..why? just for fun?i dont think so.

indy car rev high.... top fuel rev to 8-9k rpm .

just cause its cool? um no. ANY time you get into making power the revs have to go up.

The smaller the motor... you need the revs sooner to make less power then a bigger motor. Its just the way it goes.

Yeah skylines and suprassound cool too, but you gotta love the rumble that you can only get from lots of cubic inches. Now before everyone gets all excited, I drive a 4 cyl turbo, and love the sound of it too, but who's gonna argue with the huge rod you get when a '70 427 hemi cuda pulls up next to you. As long as it's properly maintained. MMMGOOD!!!!

Why buy a $5000 pc? because I can. I could buy a $2000 computer.. but I have the money to spend.. I can afford to drop 2x$1300 video cards in my system.. All you fk'heads wouldn't understand.. All you **** know how to do is drive around in your cheap 4 cylinder pieces of wood! THAT is all you idiots can afford.. Your reasoning is quite interesting.. it's like saying, "my SWATCH is better than your ROLEX because I modified the second hand so that it moves faster.." WTF?? You must all have $5/hour redneck packin jobs.. I'll stick to my large displacement luxury/sport cars while you can continue to reply to this thread with these inane comments..

I can't continue to argue any further so I won't.. You can't win against people that neither have the intelligence or capacity to understand the basic concepts of life.. hope you fare better in the next life.. Hopefully natural selection will end yours soon enough..

Don't forget Crown Vics and the old style Impalas. They are still used for taxis and are "large displacement luxury cars". Yeah and you're 30 years old mondo whatever? More like 13. :0wns:

because you can?

You still have not proved your point with the 4 cylinders being junk.

Just curious what type of video card do you have?

Dude probably still lives with his mom. By the way , I dont have a swatch but i do have a pretty nice tissot t-touch.
