He is correct…the higher horsepower base you have to start with the better and I really havent seen any N\a 300 hp 4cyl cars so he is correct ,there is no replacement for displacement ---

And your case is not 100% true, period. And no replacement for displacement is a joke. Stop making blanket statements. Edit : Just wanted to add, that you’re right. No 4-cyl has touched stuff like the 505HP out of the box C6 Z06. But the blanket statements you make are all sorts of wrong. ---
