I don't have any HP issues from my 2.3L 160 + is good enough, the problem is with most people they want a sports car
well, this one isn't meant to be a sports car. It has plenty of potential and power to become one, but it is ultimately a family sedan.
I have no complaints about mine, it is fast enough and even better now with the one mod I did to it so far.
As for MPG while car companies overrate bigger engines to try to get you to buy them, a V6 will never be as comparable to a 4 in
gas mileage for one simple fact, no matter your driving habits anytime you take off fast or kick in the passing gear the bigger engine
will always suck gas more so than a smaller Liter one.
I drove V6's and 4's and the 6 never even came close to a 4, and never will without being too underpowered, the more power
the more fuel you can kiss bye-bye. Like I said my 4 is plenty powerful enough, and I come from a muscle car era with true power,
not this slap me on a turbo era. You can put more power to your 4 with turbos and chips, but in the end your engine and trans
won't last as long as mine will, in short though if you want more power then you should get a bigger engine. But don't expect
you MPG to be better than with a smaller one, you need to decide what is more important....
HP or MPG..................
