More torque than 3.6? V angle?... Posted by Mike Lynch [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Sportshatch Next Summer with Turbo V-6 / 9-5 Redesign, joshd2012, Sat, 7 Aug 2004 08:28:39 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
The 3.6 in the Caddy is 265 horse but the torque is up high. I wonder if the 2.8 will have the torque down low?
Opel folks used to scratch their heads and wonder why the 3.0 9-5 turbo only put out 200hp and the Opel 3.0 non turbo had 210hp.
And do you suppose a 2.8 liter version of the 3.6 will be smoother? The global V6 and the 3.2 and the 3.0 and 2.8, 2.5 before that all share an odd V angle don't they? Something like 56 degrees or 65 degrees and that whole family has never been silky smooth like BMW 6.
