From what I gather, the best 4 cylinder engine ever is a toss up between the LS1, a Firebird interior, and an Eclipse door handle?

all that minus the Eclipse door handle (they fall off)

you could chop an ls1 in half, make it into an ls.5 and it still would be a better 4cyl than the 4g63

The 4g63 has gone into the 6`s with a single power adder.
Whats the fastest LS1?

ls1 (I think)
Fast Eddy Lyons

4g63 (I think)
Brent Rau

As usual, V8 performance wins...in this case by like 2/3 of a second...which when you're that fast is a FUCKLOAD. We're talking about 4-cyls though. Don't try and compare the damn thing to a motor twice its size. There is no comparison.

Bro...I just got my DSM and it only took about $1500 to get it at mid 13's. What other 4 cyl could you do that to?

Yeah but a 4 cyl being 2/3 of a second slower then a v8 is just sad. I would think having a v8 the v8 would of done better... seems like the 4 cyl is only a bit shy of stomping a v8. I'm not impressed.
