Lotus Exige gt3 is a 1.8L supercharged 4 banger. Makes something like 270 hp. So it's not as powerful, but it's just as quick as that evo. It's got a sub 4 second 0-60. (Different sources put it around 3.8-3.9) And it's top speed is 160mph (electronically limited)

yea I was thinking the accel was primary and top speed was secondary

The Caterham R500 is still a 1.8l I4 I think, it's 'only' got 230bhp but it's probably the quickest car here to 60

Well I know in Germany there's a law most performance cars have to be limited to 155mph, possibly for some other countries.

some engines come with a limiter in them that restricts power output. I think safety is why they started doing it. some cars are capable of running in 130-150 range but they get restricted down 100ish. every engine has it's "limit" but a limiter restricts the engine output
at least I think. maybe Jred or Ben could give you a better answer |
