700 H.P

2.2 L

so a 1.1 L version might have 350 H.P.

or a .55 L version might have 125 H.P.

a 1.8 L 2010 toyota prius has a max H.P. of 134

a 2010 toyota prius has a max H.P. of 134


this tells me that there is PLENTY OF ROOM for mileage boosting if we would just do it.


3/4 inch of dust build up on the moon in 4.527 billion years,LOL and QM is fantasy science.

Yea , your right.

2.2 L gets 700 H.P so a 1.1 L might get 350 H.P.

so a .55 L might get 175 H.P.

thanks for pointing that out.

but why would you call that bad science?

I think it is very interesting that a toyota prius has a 1.8 L engine with only 134 H.P. and the 1.1 L version of the gas turbine might have 350 H.P.

thats almost 3 times the amount of power that the toyota piston engine has , and using less engine displacement.

this tells me that there is PLENTY MORE ROOM for mileage boosting if we would just do it.
