Hehe

What do i call the S55? A 6 cylinder engine

What do i call the lotus engine? A 4 cylinder

There is a clear and inequivocal difference in engine feel between a 4 cyl and a 6 cyl. Starting by the I6 being a balanced engine while the 4 cylinder is not

So lets be clear: i do not want **any** 4 cylinder engine. They are all unworthy of being in a sports car. I don't care if it's the boxster 718s, a mini cooper s or the toyota microcar engine.

The s55 or n55 may be pieces of shit as well, but a 6 cylinder piece of shit is orders of magnitude better than a 4 cylinder piece of shit
