Assuming they could all be tuned perfectly, about the same.
HP is made in displacement, heads (valves, chamber shape and size, etc), compression ratio, camshaft. HP is unlocked when there is a restriction in the intake/exhaust that gets removed. But if the intake is capable of more than the peak engine HP (1.7 with 40IDFs) then it won't make more power. Your intake is larger than your engine. The only way to really make a 1.7 produce more HP is forced induction. |
