sorry for the n00b question, but I was just wondering what the litre of the engine is, why bigger is better, etc, etc....

is there any sites that give you in-depth information on easy stuff like this??

thanks alot,

The whole liter thing refers to displacement. Usually, more displacement means more hp and a broader powerband.

The S2000 alone makes my statement look stupid...but that's why I said "usually."

High-tech engines almost make up for displacement. ;) :D

F/I is simulated displacement...
High disp. N/A cars usually out-torque smaller disp. N/A cars though.
