Hi everyone. First post.

Bright side #1: they didn't kill the horsepower numbers like the Delta Wing guy wanted.

Bright side #2: the rule of thumb is that every one liter/cubic inch of turbocharged = 2 normally aspirated. So this is the equivalent of a 4.8L normally aspirated engine (293 ci).

Bright side #3: there's nothing in what they released only limiting it to the manufacturers, so an independent engine builder can make an engine per what's written down

Bright side #4: They will increase the jobs (hopefully) of all the old and new (like myself) turbo charger techs that can work on the cars.
