From an engine bigger than the Challenger SRT8. And the lesser L92's make 'only' 380 hp. Thats as much as the 5.7L hemi will make next year. Personally, I don't care much about specific output. Peak power, torque, reliability, and fuel mileage matter more than displacement to me but I can't ignore the fact that it matters to lots of people. And for young kids, it tends to matter alot (most of the youngin's here are exceptions). It doesn't matter how relevent it is to performance, it matters for sales. They would pick the smaller engine because its more advanced.
