for those of us who arent just power hungry, this could be a great engine for us - smooth power delivery and hopefully minimal lag, id accept any increase in power (obviously more the better) but i think it will be a great time to showcase just how centered and balanced this new engine is. what im sayin is it doesnt have to be a 400whp monster, lets make it f1 smooth and responsive

EDIT: oh ya, and MAJOR PROPS to shiv haha
