82hp per liter vs 83
So a 5.5 liter would make around 455/460hp based on this useless stat
Just thinking what a bore and stroke would do in a GS F for instance or a new IS F.

I'd rather take the 2GR-FSE's numbers - 87+ hp/liter. If we just had that we'd make 437 hp stock with the 5.0 liter engine. Your 5.5 liter would make 481 hp...

It would have been nice if Lexus tuned the IS-F to 450hp stock. Would that be possible?

Ya know, you'd expect the F to have a more aggressive ECU, and with the trick Yamaha heads and fancy valves, you'd think the HP per liter would be higher on the F than it is on the LS

I can't figure out why the IS350 has more hp/liter than the IS-F. ???
