20v is over-rated.

5 Valves per cylinder is over-rated.

If you base you're entire argument off the 5 valves, yes...but the 20v 4A-GE's are still amazing 1.6L machines, matching Honda's vaulted "100hp per liter" mumbo-jumbo by producing 160hp of its own.

Damned good for a 1.6L N/A. And just for you sir, ITB's standard!

Flow interference, bad flame propagation, heat soaking between valves, extra cost for no performance gain.

There's ITB's in that aluminum box, being fed by a turbo. And a 4 valve small port head. Yummy, and for sale for $9k Cdn.

I was speaking more in factory form...., I'm definitely no stranger to the numerous tuning possibilities the 4A offers.

I know.

Buddy's car, needs funding for his new shop.

I'm familiar with the technical limits (not that they're really limits like they are a 2V or something, just not really worth the expense IMO) of the 5v heads but...

How do the 20v 4A's sound opened up?

Hell NVM, I'm off to youtube to answer my own question...

All 4A-GE's sound like glorious heaven on earth when opened up...

Noooooo, I'm not biased.

I love the updated Concept 2. The headlights have an "LFA" look to them. The second car is hot! I would however like to see revised front LED drl's and a revised rear bumper that is a bit less "ricey." Otherwise, this car is amazing and I will sign up for one as soon as Toyota Motors announces that it will indeed be labeled as a "Toyota" here in the US.

Go Mk I!
