    I was waiting for Fleet to post his cadre of V8s, but I'm not sure that'll come close.

    Anyone want to try and do Jay Leno's?

    Haha, you'd have trouble with giving equivalency with steam engines.

    As for me, I just got out on my own feet and am still at zero cylinders. Don't even have a bike right now but at least I am saving lots of money
    Apparently not. It's a SOHC engine.

    No wonder I think it's so torquey- it has 177 hp and 166 ft lb of torque.

    That would be the most torquey car in our lineup.

    Lets see,

    335d - Straight 6
    Audi Q5, 09' was a V6 but thats recently been upgraded for a turbo 4
    Jetta is a 4 bangin diesel
    Ducati Monster is a L twin

    so that puts me at 16 cylinders and 7.8 liters of displacement.
    702 horsepower
    952 ftlbs of torque

    no bad at all!

    Do turbo's still get a 1.5 liter displacement multiplication? or diesels?
    Gone:
    09 Ducati Monster 696
    09 Audi Q5 3.2
    03 Infiniti G35 Sedan
    07 Honda Civic Coupe LX 5spd

    Current:
    10 BMW 335d
    12 Audi Q5 2.0t
    10 VW Jetta TDI
    11 Ducati Monster 796

    You sold the Ducati, that doesn't count!

    Damn, I am falling behind in the rankings LOL! I went from bronze medal to 5th place

    My understanding is that it has to be an internal combustion piston - your compressor piston wouldn't count, but if it's run by an internal combustion motor, the cylinder(s) on the motor count!

    Since you put up some other metrics...

    Total displacement: 9,3l
    Average # of cylinders: 4,5 cyl/vehicle
    Average displacement: 2,33l/vehicle
    Total # of camshafts: 9
    Total # of valves: 52

    Since I can only make an educated guess at the current HP of two of the vehicles and a less educated guess at the tq on them, I won't try to touch that one
