"Briggs & Stratton" indeed! :-) Don't get me wrong, I think that putting
a 3.2L Honda V6 in the front of a Saab would not be a good idea without
Haldex AWD. However, we have to be fair.
Honda engines are perhaps the best naturally aspirated engines.
Even b.flippo drives a Honda S2000. I personally don't like having to
flog an engine to get decent power from it, but the 2.0L 4 cylinder
naturally aspirated engine on the S2000 generates 240 horse-power.
Not even BMW can come even close to those HP/Displacement numbers.
The same cam-changing VVT is used in the 3.2L V6 engines in Acuras.
I don't like the measly low-end torque, but the Honda engines are
the best darned naturally aspirated engines in the world today.
thanks
Jae
