[QUOTE="thePill, post: 15646931, member: 119504"] I am beginning to think you have extreme difficulty if life. No, each system has its advantages/disadvantages. If 800+ is the target, the efficiency of a Twin or Hot V would be needed on a 5.0 - 5.2 liter V8. We would need more than 150hp per liter and only a Twin or Hot V can achieve that efficiency... unless your talking a 4 or 6 but they can't achieve 800+ due to displacement. Even then, it was made pretty clear that Port Direct Injection would be required. PDI didn't exist during the initial discussion nor was Direct Injection being used on a V8. Who knows, maybe Dodge's 808 sent Ford back to the drawing board. A female engine builder confirmed the engine was being worked on Nov 2015. I highly doubt we waited nearly 2 years and Ford budgeted $150m to Romeo for PDI and a new SC engine that may not be compatible with PDI. Edit: It is worth noting, a Hot V BiTurbo is slightly more efficient than a parallel/outboard system. The heat between the cylinder banks helps heat the turbos, which helps efficiency. Similar to the Ford Indy V8 set up (minus the turbos). [/QUOTE]
