All are tuned supposedly for efficiency , honestly between tiny turbo and bigger CC , my preference always bigger CC no turbo, instantaneous response to gas pedal , all turbos have boost lag

QUOTE(unitron @ Dec 11 2017, 10:54 AM) I've only test drove the new CRV, so can't give real experience on the others. Thing with forced induction is the turbo has finite lifetime , the seals don't last forever , eventually it will start burning engine oil All my cars (3x) are sedans (ranging from 1.5L to 2.4L), so that's my reference. When driving the CRV i felt like I'm driving a sedan, but with higher seating position. I like it. Power is as good as a 2.4L car, but for sure the FC will be much better due to the better efficiency of turbos + small CC Interior you have lots of it. Dunno about the other SUV thought. Long time ago i had the same opinion, however after driving forced induction smaller CC, I would go for the forced induction. More low end and flatter torque (this is more important for me than high RPM hp), better FC, lower road tax, easier to tune / remap for more power gains  |
