Oh I forgot that you mentioned there is less space around the engine in the D2 compared to the C5.
Just wondering, what is the safe HP and TQ that these 40v D2 engines handle before you need to rebuild the engine with better rods and pistons?
Yeah fv*|< California as they think everything causes cancer! Heck back in June California was going to ban the sales of the new Porsche 911 GT3 and GT3 Touring with a manual transmission because of "noise regulations" and then a week later they changed their decision. Heck I bet California is the reason why new vehicles has soft rev limiters.
