Thanks for the history lesson but what does the 2JZ have anything to do with what's being discussed
? All I was saying was that the N54 is underrated from factory and the published 300hp/300tq should be more in the range of 330hp/330tq (which is in line of the engines you listed).

In this day in age, most if not all car manufactures are using DI in there engines. So to answer your question, one of the few it not only engine(s) that makes over 300hp without DI would be the VQ. By no means is that an engineering feat especially since the VQ has the highest displacement (37HR) in its class and Nissan failed to use a technology that will make their engine better.
