Quote: I have an srt8 challenger and my mom has a hemi 300 and i am just amazed how fast they are for a stock vehicle. I remember back when my 68 383 roadrunner was basically stock and this heavier car with smaller engine would eat it alive. every time i drive it i keep saying this thing cant be stock and i was curious is it the head flow they have now or is it the efficiency of new engines] now or is it just a comination of many things
This pretty much sums it up. An engine is only an air pump. Pump MORE air, do it MORE efficiently, you make MORE power. Pretty basic.

Exactly...
Its like just the other day, I drove a friend of mine's late model AWD Infiniti G35.. Got it out on the highway and nailed it..WOW..the thing pulled like a freight train ..8K plus redline...Only 3.5 puny naturally aspirated litres pushing a loaded down 4000+ lb sedan.
