hey 7m-brisane... wats with---> Hell, you'd still get pasted by your average yellow-cap-wearing V6 Commodore driver??? my 16v is quicker than those bogan driven v6 crumpledores... so how do u explain that one..and no my engine is not some crazy worked off its nut thing that dont idle below 1500rpm..it happily likes to idle at 900rpm...


Said commodore driver probably runs low to flat 16's. If it was manual it would be in the 15's (although only just).

Basic maths suggests that if my friends cars run low 16's, and commodores run that time or faster... then my comment would be true. A lot of it is in power delivery too. The 20v is a revvy motor with high peak power... not much good on the street but probably fantastic in a Clubman. Even a heavily warmed over atmo 20v would struggle to make 170hp. Not much good on the street.

As I said, they're not a completely useless motor... but certainly no good in a street car unless you start talking forced induction. In which case you're talking a fair amount of dollars and you shoudl have just bought a better engine in the first place.

Oh, and I didn't ever say that a 20v will not idle. Sounds like you're getting a little defensive that someone disagrees with your choice of motor Smile
