Our economic, non-hipo engines were originally designed by Porsche....those economic vehicle manufacturers..
Our intake manifolds also use the Cosworth casting process..Yet another economy manufacturer!
Seriously though, the SRT-4 is a great(term used lightly) "Bang for the Buck" performance car yet what it makes in overall power it lacks in other areas such as handling, looks etc.
I personally think that comparing an SVT Contour that was designed/released in the mid-late 90's to a Factory F/I car of milllenium technology is absurd.
