well, when i get on Subaru's website, i see their 2.5L n/a engine that makes 170hp and 170ft.lbs. that's 68hp/L and 68ft.lbs/L.

honda, with their 2.0L Si engine (K20Z3 i think?), has 197hp and 139ft.lbs. 98.5 hp/L and 69.5ft.lbs/L.

please don't for a minute think that i don't like subarus or the 2.5n/a engine.

i just think their heads could use some improvement is all.
