minus-squareV48runner@alien.topBlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·10 months agoI hope history proves me wrong about an overstressed turbocharged 4 cylinder pushing that much truck around.
minus-squareandrewjaekim@alien.topBlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·10 months agoIs it over stressed? It’s making 278hp from a 2.4L engine. Mercedes is pushing 416 from less displacement with a 2.0L engine.
minus-squareDarkMatterM4@alien.topBlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·10 months agoTo be fair, Mercedes is hardly the cornerstone of reliability. But yeah, I’d say you’re right on the money.
minus-squareV48runner@alien.topBlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·10 months agoThat’s why the 4.0 V6 was the superior truck engine. Made its torque lower in the powerband. Lots of these engines make it to 300k easily. Not sure why I’m being downvoted for saying that I hope I’m wrong about this turbo 4. 😂
minus-squarebeefman202@alien.topBlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·10 months agoits literally peak torque at 3k more rpm lmao
minus-squareV48runner@alien.topBlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·10 months agoCompared to the 3.5, not the 2.4 turbo.
minus-squareContractHot6072@alien.topBlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·10 months agoI doubt it’s overstressed, this is a 2.4 liter instead of a 2 liter
minus-squareV48runner@alien.topBlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·10 months agoWell, time will certainly tell. That’s why I said I hope I was wrong.
minus-squareBonerchill@alien.topBlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·10 months agoAs I’ve learned about engines by being involved with rebuilding hundreds of them, I’ve learned that most people have very little understanding of what kills them. Without seeing inside this engine, statements like this are just… ignorant.
minus-squareV48runner@alien.topBlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·10 months agoPerhaps you can offer some insight?
