As an interesting note about peak power, I hepled a friend build a 16v rally motor for his AE86 rally car. It had 288 cams, high compression, head work, 20v throttle bodies and a Haltech. When we finished, it produced a massive 70kW at the wheels.

Doesn't sound like much does it? Yet, everyone who drove the car was blown away by how quick it was, the car went on to win the NSW P2 (under 1600) class that year.

The moral of the story is, power numbers are a very small part of the engine equation. Usable power will win far more races than peak power anywhere except a dragstrip....
