Only when said 2L can spool to 8 grand ;)

Honestly though, after doing some light tuning on Gabe's car, the 2L Subaru motor is much smoother and can definitely take a LOT more timing than the 2.5L.

Actually, God's gift to motoring was a hybrid quad turbo diesel 1.25L w/ flux capacitor and warp drive...but somehow that got misplaced so...

There's no replacement for more air, fuel, and spark. How you fit all that into the space between your cylinder walls (hell, Honda has shown us they needn't even be cylinders! just something vaguely tube-like that holes fire!) is up to you.
