500HP 30% Efficiency
This is a supercar engine, it is too labor intensive for a mass produced vehicle. Its a 4.7l V8 twin turbo. After AlphaTech I wanted to see how far I could go with high power and high efficiency. I also managed over 40% efficiency from a 110HP 1.3L but the cost and labor was astronomical.
This engine has potential for a lot more power but I can't let the low friction pistons rev too much and reducing the stroke tends to reduce efficiency. The torque is excellent though. It runs on 95RON
