In all fairness even the jap 6 cylinders can struggle to compare with them to a certain degree!
hows that exactly ? if an rb26dett or a 2jz-gte engine had the same level of tuning over years and years by a top tuner it would be well in excess of 1000 bhp. 500 hp is not the norm for a yb it takes some work and ££££ to get it genuineley with matching torque, but it is the norm with either of the jap engines and easily achieved. i know this thread is aimed at the sr20det but youve stated the jap 6s struggle to compare, believe me they dont i know ive had both yb and rb
