These are all good things, IMO. We've had several generations grow up thinking an effin' Honda with a loud exhaust is a "performance" car. I don't blame those kids, for awhile, nobody was selling anything worth a crap.


If you believe this then I question your knowledge about cars. You can squeeze quite a bit of power and speed out of a Honda 4-banger. It just takes a lot more than an exhaust.

Ask any question you want, I'll be happy to educate you.

Getting horsepower out of a 4 cyl. is not impossible, but you're still going to lack torque, and in most cases, you're driving it through the front wheels. Good luck managing that additional HP through a FWD w/o reengineering the whole damn car.

It's just easier to work with more displacement and RWD.
