[QUOTE="turbology, post: 320901, member: 10223"] I6 or V6 or V8 in same displacement(cc) should perform the same in performance wise. (bore/stroke remain relatively at same ratio) For the sound... I rather take rotary :D Contrary to most believe, V-setup (V6 or V8) have more disadvantage in term of performance. You run more cams, heavier, bigger belts, etc. Heat efficiency is lower. Exhaust "pulse" is less effective because of 3-to-1 setup. More engine oil is use. More complicated balancer. More parts to break... I can keep going But it save space :) [/QUOTE]
