I never said I thought the RX8 was any great car. I think its ugly, the RX7 is much better looking. And read my last sentence.

I was just stating the information that Aru was most likely going based on. Like I said, if his mathematics were true then they could just make on big freakin rotary engine that would dominate everything.

The big limiting factor is the mechanics, and even though matehmatically the RX8 would pump out more HP per liter... it's still slower. I do side with you on this issue NoHook, even though Aru does in some strange way have his own points, I think they are a bit mis-guided and unknowledgable.

*EDIT - 5 minutes later*
I was taking a dump when I realized that, hell if we were going to go purely mathmatical about this, my stock Volvo has 114hp with a 2.3L non turbo engine, so thats basically 50hp per liter. The 700 series volvos with the same engine with the turbo run 160 horse power, so thats basically 70hp per liter. Hell lets just make one big Volvo engine and screw all of you! Cuz if we go with that math, 70hp into a 5.0L like in the mustang, would be 350hp! w00... stupid mustangs.... hah...
