230bhp from a 5.2 LITRE engine is utterly pathetic! how do americans manage to get such puny amounts of power from engines?? in europe we can get 230bhp from a blender!
perhaps ur not aware, but it's not a high performance car were talkin bout here, and look at any of those high-performance cars' stats, and you'll see that they have more power than torque. POWER=SPEED (aka, how capable is the car of reaching it's maximum speed is my best way of describing it.) TORQUE=centrifugal wheelspin (aka, the capability of the engine to make the wheels turn) now, don't ask me how these are dissimilar cuz i'm always confused when explaining them, but all i know is that since my 318 is a push-rod engine (car nuts know what i mean!), it produces more torque than power.....so a ford GT has 550bhp and a little less torque, not quite sure what the number is....but how can u say that in europe cars are way better when they keep producing 45bhp production cars in 2007-08! LMFAO!!!! that is just sad...my lawnmower has more power.....no joke...it has 56hp and 60lb-ft of torque (dyno'ed.....i know....lol i work at a garage and we have a dyno.....lol)
I believe i have made my point, that it don't matter how much power u have in the states, cuz we don't have the autobahn...or other places to go legally fast other than the arizona salt flats (at least i think it's arizona.....lol). and my truck is only a 318...if i had a 440....well now were talkin!
and btw, jahoovenator....i didn't mean this reply as a mean gesture....but merely to explain why this 230bhp deal is not that big of a deal for a pickup truck, but if it was a lambo or a mustang.....then....well....whole other story....so no offence to you buddy!
