Hehe, well I guess it was a question not a statement - but yeah I've put my person line in the sand, purely on the numbers. And perhaps my excitement relates a little to the fact that I just had to sell my old one, so a new one is in my sights.
But lets be honest here - when it comes to engines, the numbers factually describe a lot (as does the great looking dyno) - Physics are physics, and nothing with these kind of numbers have ever been called poor, or merely adequate
We are talking about the engine, not the package.
