A swedish tuning company just came up with this monster!

2-Litre Nissan Engine putting out 765,1 hp and 772 Nm!.
That's 378,76 hp per litre!
If we recount it, a Chevrolet 350 cui (5,7 Litre) would have 2.159
hp on the driveshaft! And that's on 95 oktan fuel!
By far most in Europe!

Here's the evidence:

Right click, save as. Newest! 2004
Right click, save as. From 2003. First ride!
 
BMW had a turbo'ed engine that topped out a 1500bhp dyno with 1.5l of displacement.

Was practically undrivable and broke pretty soon.
 
By the type of results gotten, I don't think the engine was in a car. It was most likely on an engine dyno. I'm also sure that it was never meant for a car, but more or less as a build and test engine to see what it could do.
 
Has everybody forgotten about the Dahlback Racing RSi???

2.1L I5 putting out 600-900 hp... this is just a conservative estimate. It was reportedly putting out around 850 hp @ 9000 rpm before the wheels started slipping on the dyno... 1200 hp is estimated at the flywheel at redline (reported @ 11000+ rpm)...

I can't imagine the engine would run smoothly at all. Pumping 765 HP out of 2 liters can't be good for the engine.

Pumping 150 HP out of 5 liters is just plain awful.

Wasn't that in the early 80's with one of their Formula 1 4 cylinder lumps? They used road car blocks that had 100,000 miles under it so all the stress had been worked out of them.
 
Rotaries are kind of a gray area... theoretically a 1.3L rotary actually displaces 3.9L since there are 3 chambers/rotor that are constantly changing volume. The lower displacement designation is a remnant of most people not having a clue how a rotary worked and Mazda used this to their advantage. I can't remember whether it was to bypass some sort of gov't legislation govening imported cars or simply an advertising gimmick.
 
Wtf? In 200 rpm the power nearly doubles. I bet that would be fun to drive. Oh, and that power is made at an astounding 2.7 bar. ****ing 40psi.

I used to drive a 76 Malibu, 5.7 liters and 148 hp. :) How´s that for hp/l, it's almost like cars from 1930
 
The BMW engine I mentioned above was indeed used in F1 back then. It was based on the 2002tii engine and ran 6 bar of boost to achieve 1500bhp. Standard trim was ~650bhp though.
 
Ask Famine about the Ford, I think he knows quite a bit. The car was driven a little. I think it's the car in Famine's avatar.
 
The Ford RS200 Evolution, in my avatar, used a 1.8 litre engine, producing up to 850hp in competition spec (472hp/litre), although the road car left the factory with between 450 and 650hp (250-361 hp/litre). The RS200 GTO IMSA used a 2.1 litre engine and kicked out 750hp (357hp/litre).
 
They focused on drivability not power. They made a 780+ measurment but that wasn't as smoth as this one.
You can watch the vid and judge by yourself.
 
I'm not so sure...the dyno pulls start at 5800 RPM...this means that probably not much exciting starts happening until the engine is spinning hellishly fast.

Think about it....a LS1 is pretty much done by the time it hits 6000 RPM.
 
That's why it's so drivable. With a TVR Speed 12 for example
the car spins out even if you just watch at the throttle.
 
Is that engine in the video a Nissan SR20? Sure looks like it....

Edit: Thought I would include that there are several SR20 200SX's roaming the streets in the U.S that are pushing 500+ HP on the stock bottom end. (I got this from several people on Nissanforums.com)
 
scoot gets 900hp out of their na 4-rotor 20b(2 litrE) enginne.... with the turbos, its supposed to be 1400+hp. rotary baby
 
I get 160bhp out of a 2litre turbo inline 4. Why do cars in the US have so little power when they are so big? Seems like a waste of space, weight and fuel.
