Atmo WRC engines in 2006

http://www.worldrallynews.com/cgi-bi...6545477,14142,

Could be air restricted 2.5 V6s to limit power to 300-350BHP region, or more likely IMO 2l 4 cylinder engines with no restrictors, and maybe a 10,000rpm limit.

These engines would be able to produce about 330-340 BHP max. without the need for restrictors, with only very small, insignificant bhp gains able to be made, unlike unrestricted turbos who can increase power enourmously with devlopment.

Whatever the formula, high revving atmo engines, in 4wd WRC cars should be awsome.
