Oh come on. F20C, K20, B18C5. You cant only compare our engine to American 4 cylinders. The F20C is 120hp/l.
K20A:
The biggest advantage of the K20A over ours is that flat torque curve from about 4500 to 7500. It exceeds our peek HP from 7000 all the way to 8000. It has a full cut at 8500RPM. For sure the FA20 has more torque below 4000 though. But the problem with our engine is it gives you all this toque and then says, "haha.. I tricked you, now let me have that torque back for a while".
How about this... leave the power output alone and fix that damn torque dip!
