An in-line 6 brings more horsepower than the Raptor.
That's why the 700hp blown V8 Raptor R exists.
BTW an in-line 6 is arguably a better HP motor than a V8 due to the inherent lack of 1st and 2nd order vibrations without the added reciprocating mass of a harmonic damper/balance shaft they rev faster and are easier to build for a higher redline. Not that matters much when you are pounding it with boost.

Why aren’t there more high-displacement V6’s? 6+ liter, for example?
