Who's recommending anything?
I'm simply replying to your post regarding more power means more fuel, and my answer to that is, it depends on the cars use.
If a customer came to me for a road going car using it for his daily drive to work, would I recommend a T4? Lol no, nothing would be a worse choice as the car would be lathargic, laggy, off boost almost all the time during his daily drive, not good for performance at all in that situation.
But it would be better on fuel. That's a fact!
So your bold statement was wrong IMO. Big power cars are not always more thirsty, IT DEPENDS HOW YOU USE IT.
